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.

Describe the energy pyramid describe the biomass pyramid
kogti [31]
The energy pyramid describes decomposers compared to energy lost as heat. Primary producers start at 100% and it decreases to 10% at primary consumers, 1% at secondary, .1% at third level, and .01% at apex.
The biomass pyramid describes the total mass of an organism and as a biomass moves up, the overall mass is losing volume. This means it decreases as it moves from the bottom to the top.

During transcription the DNA base sequence is transcribed into a complementary mRNA sequence. A codon table like the one shown b
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

b. Even though the DNA sequence changed, the sequence still codes for the same amino acid, so no change in phenotype will occur.

Explanation:

There is redundancy in the genetic code. That means that different codons can code for the same amino acids, so some mutations do not change the amino acid sequence of the protein.

Here, the amino acid is unchanged with the mutation.

If the amino acid sequence of the protein is the same, then the protein is not changed, so there will be no change in the phenotype
