Farmers should discontinue the use of Bt corn (genetically modified maize)as their negative affects on the health of the consumers have not been fully over ruled by the recent research. In my opinion, genetically modified crops, although, are resistant to various pests, should not be encouraged because of the toxic chemical contents used during their production. There's a strong likelihood of these toxic chemicals entering our food chain and also being harmful to other naturally growing plants, hence there's a need for more research before this idea is pursued.

No, because GM maize has caused controversy with respect to possible health effects,
And also, the use of GM o can cause ill , pain, sickness, or even death in some serious cases

Hope this helps

Describe the steps in which a gene in passed from parent to offspring. Make sure to describe how the gene is duplicated, separat
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Mitosis occurs in somatic cells; this means that it takes place in all types of cells that are not involved in the production of gametes. Prior to each mitotic division, a copy of every chromosome is created; thus, following division, a complete set of chromosomes is found in the nucleus of each new cell. Indeed, apart from random mutations, each successive duplicate cell will have the same genetic composition as its parent, due to the inheritance of the same chromosome set and similar biological environment. This works well for replacing damaged tissue or for growth and expansion from an embryonic state. Because the genes contained in the duplicate chromosomes are transferred to each successive cellular generation, all mitotic progeny are genetically similar. However, there are exceptions. For example, there are genetic variations that arise in clonal species, such as bacteria, due to spontaneous mutations during mitotic division. Furthermore, chromosomes are sometimes replicated multiple times without any accompanying cell division. This occurs in the cells of Drosophila larvae salivary glands, for example, where there is a high metabolic demand. The chromosomes there are called polytene chromosomes, and they are extremely large compared to chromosomes in other Drosophila cells. These chromosomes replicate by undergoing the initial phases of mitosis without any cytokinesis (Figure 2). Therefore, the same cell contains thick arrangements of duplicate chromosomes side by side, which look like strands of very thick rope. Scientists believe that these chromosomes are hyper-replicated to allow for the rapid and copious production of certain proteins that help larval growth and metamorphosis
