Answer;

A. The idea has not yet achieved scientific consensus.

Explanation;

-Gene therapy is an experimental technique that uses genes to treat or prevent disease. In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient’s cells instead of using drugs or surgery.

-Although gene therapy is a promising treatment option for a number of diseases, such as inherited disorders and some types of cancer, the technique remains risky and is still under study to make sure that it will be safe and effective. Which means the idea of gene therapy has not yet achieved scientific consensus.

Coral reefs support more species than any other marine environment. The biodiversity in a coral reef is great, and scientists es
fomenos

Answer:

The artificial reef would decrease erosion of the coastline.

Explanation:

Artificial reefs are created in area where there is little uderwater topography or near established coral reefs to imitate or even substitute for natural coral reefs where they are absent or endangered due various factors which are mostly human in nature. The artificial serves to provide a habitat for marine organisms and ensure more biodiversity around the area by providing shelter from predation and surfaces for encrusting organisms such as corals and sponges to grow on. The growth of these lower level food chain organisms attract larger predator organisms thereby increasing the biodiversity in the area.

Artificial reefs are made from a variety of materials such as shipwrecks, construction debris, oil rigs, concrete, and any other man-made objects. Since reef structures protect shorelines against waves, artificial reefs would decrease the erosion of the coastline providing benefit to the people living along the coastline by preventing the destruction of beaches and coastal property,

Are performed to assess the adequacy of the amount of oxygen getting to the heart muscle
Crazy boy [7]
The correct answer would be stress tests. These are performed to assess the adequacy of the amount of oxygen getting to the heart muscle during exercise and at rest. With this, the absence or presence of a heart disease can be indicated. This is a common procedure done in Cardiography and Cardiovascular Monitoring Services. During this test, the patient is asked to do exercises usually using a treadmill while the patient is hooked on an EKG or electrocardiogram machine. As one exercises, the doctor would monitor the heart rate reading the systole and the diastole. There are also imaging tests to be able to capture pictures of the blood flow in the heart.
