There are a lot of concerns and benefits with biotechnology. The benefits is that it can increase the functionality of an organism, or even repair an organism or even help the organism. The downside, for example, is before-birth alteration of genes. For example, if a mother wants her child to be a girl and for her eyes to be green, one could say that that is morally wrong. Another concern is with businesses. For example, a scientist makes a breakthrough that replaces workers at car companies to be replaced with robots, thus taking way jobs of those people. It is more of a matter of what is not wrong or right in biotechnology.

How do Euglena and sperm cells use flagella?
loris [4]

Answer:

All euglena have chloroplasts and can make their own food by photosynthesis. ... Euglena move by a flagellum (plural ‚ flagella), which is a long whip-like structure that acts like a little motor. The flagellum is located on the anterior (front) end, and twirls in such a way as to pull the cell through the water.

Explanation:

In general, flagellum is a long whip like organ which protrudes to the exterior from the cell body and permits mechanical work without any marked change in the form of the effector cell. In Euglena, there are two flagella. One of them is equal in length to body while other is short.

In which group is parthenogenesis a normal event?
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Bees

Explanation:

Parthenogenesis is a method of asexual reproduction in which an egg cell develops into a new individual without fertilization. Parthenogenesis occurs in insects, amphibians, reptiles, fish, and in some plants. Most of the organisms which reproduces through parthenogenesis, they also reproduce sexually. Parthenogenesis may be occurs by apomixis and by automixis. In apomixis, egg is produced by mitosis and results into diploid clones. In automixis egg is produced by meiosis and the haploid egg develops into diploid new individual by the duplication of chromosomes. Parthenogenesis is an adaptation which allows to reproduce in adverse environmental conditions when sexual reproduction is not possible.

A parent with the blood type A (genotype AO) and a parent with blood type B (genotype BO) have children with blood types A, B, a
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Co-dominance because he expresses both of the alleles simultaneously

Explanation:

The ABO blood group system is used by humans. This blood group type is controlled by multiple alleles. Alleles A and B are both dominant over allele O but are co-dominant. Co-dominance is a type of inheritance pattern in which two alleles of a gene both express themselves i.e. neither is recessive.

This is the case of this family whose parents have a genotype of AO (blood type A) and BO (blood type B) respectively. The children have blood types A, B, and AB. However, the child with genotype AB possesses both the A and B allele, which are both expressed in his blood group (phenotype), hence, it can be said that the child is exhibiting CO-DOMINANCE for the blood group trait.
