Two ethical issues of using Biotechnology are Affordability and Privacy. Two social issues of Biotechnology are Harm to the environment and Bio-terrorism.

<u>EXPLANATION: </u>

  • The most concerning ethical issue of using biotechnology is the cost and access to new treatments.
  • The drugs that break clots that cause heart attacks, for example, are extremely expensive and so the common people cannot afford them.
  • The second ethical issue is Privacy.
  • The technology can decode the human genome which might reveal the future health information of a person.
  • The first social issue of using biotechnology is the harm to the environment.
  • It is not sure how will the ecosystem react when a new organism is introduced in the ecosystem.
  • Another social issue is that terrorists might make new superbugs or infectious viruses, using biotechnology, which might not have any cure.

Which gas does not occur naturally in the atmosphere in any amount but was solely created by human activity? Support your answer
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Carbon monoxide.

Explanation:

Carbon monoxide is a gas that consists of an oxygen and a carbon to be able to fulfill the complete molecule, it is a potentially dangerous gas for life on this earth.

On the other hand, what differentiates it from carbon dioxide is that it has two oxygens that are coupled with a carbon to fulfill the complete molecule.

Both gases are pollutants, and produced by man, it is considered that these in high partial pressures in the atmosphere generate a mortal potential for humans since they have more affinity with the hemoglobin protein that is the human gas transporter par excellence, the which oxygenates the tissues.

If the oxygen drops in partial pressure and these toxic gases increase, the hemoglobin having a higher affinity will bind to them and toxify the human body, preventing oxygenation.
