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.

The formula F = ma shows the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. Solve this formula for a.
LuckyWell [14K]

The answer is D. This means that is you have a determined amount of force (in newtons) being applied on an object of known mass (in kilograms), then to determine the acceleration of the object, divide the force by the mass (or multiplying the force with the inverse of the mass of the object). This behavior of objects is stipulated in Newtons/ second law. Increasing the force increases the acceleration while increasing the mass decreases the acceleration of the object. Acceleration is a vector quantity meaning it has magnitude and direction.
