Answer:

Option B, A decrease in crop diversity.

Explanation:

The genetic diversity will decrease because  genetically modified crop with improvised trait will be a dominant species among all and hence in long run it will overrun all other species of crop which get affected by weed killers. Genetic material of genetically modified crops (GM) will subside the expression of any other genetic trait, thereby limiting the variation in the offspring in coming generation.

Hence, option B is correct

B. A decrease in crop diversity is an environmental concern. Weed killers will wipe out other strains of crop leaving only the engineered resistant type.

Which of the following is TRUE about this reaction?
hoa [83]

The right answer is C

This process is called anaerobic respiration. It doesn't need dioxygen to occur (it can happen with or without O2).

Anaerobic respiration is a mechanism in which electrons pass through a chain of transporters whose final acceptor is a mineral substance other than oxygen, unlike aerobic respiration where the final acceptor is dioxygen. The final acceptor may be the nitrate ion (as in the case of Pseudomonas), carbon dioxyde or the sulfate ion.

Some bacteria (Pseudomonas) are able, anaerobically, to reduce nitrates to nitrites and then, depending on the case, to dinitrogen (with the enzyme Nitrate reductase A).

NO3- ==> NO2- ==> N2.
