In the broadest sense of the term, we have modified the genes of almost everything. We used selective breeding to breed the most resistant form of crops, the largest sized chickens, and others. In recent years we have even modified them through gene splicing and other methods. Nearly everything we eat, including including "organic" foods have been changed from their original DNA structure, in fact we do not even know anything's original genetic structure because of this. Genetic modification could also include mutations. Some crops have mutated due to pollution, disease, or other effects such as climate change. Without genetic modification our world would differ from what it looks like today.
If decomposers were here then their would be a ton of waste and the dead and bacteria will pile up
Answer:
B) a nonsense mutation; this is because a nonsense mutation results in the change of a regular amino acid codon into a stop codon, which ceases translation. This fits with the problem's description of the protein that causes the symptoms as too short, as translation is the process by which proteins/polypeptides are created. A missense mutation would not be the answer because it still codes for an amino acid, which would not shorten the protein. A duplication of the gene would probably just lengthen the protein or not affect its length at all.
Ans: Cells are so small because it allows them to have a better surface area to volume ratio. This makes it much easier for the cell to bring in necessary nutreints and excrete wastes. Also the smaller the cell is, the less time it takes to replicate the small cell as opposed to a bigger cell.
