B. Because of Farm laws that require no seeds to be kept from a harvest, or you are not allowed to have plants of a different genetic make or made by a different company in your field if you didn't buy it, you could have wind carry seeds into opposing fields, and if inspected, you would potentially have to pay a fine for having unauthorized varieties growing in your field. And trying to remove it would be a pain, because you would either have to find a killer that your plants are resistant to, or to find these individually and pluck them, or to spray a killer that would kill all of your plants, but none of these resistant varieties

Answer:

If it accidentally spreads to areas where it is unwanted, it will be difficult to remove.

Explanation:

If it accidentally spreads to areas where it is unwanted, the herbicide resistant rice strain will be difficult to remove.

In 2006, this new strain of rice accidentally began to grow where it was not wanted. It invaded the crops of many farmers, including those in Mississippi, and it negatively impacted their production.

An imbalance from the homeostasis perspective is considered to be
Aleks [24]

<span>When there is an imbalance from the homeostasis of the body, a disorder or disease may result. Homeostasis establishes balance and equilibrium of the internal and external part of the body. If this balance or ideal levels are interrupted, the body may correct it by making all system work together or the problem may worsen based on certain influences and may not allow normal functioning of the organism, by either deficiency or toxicity. </span>

Moreover, some factors that influence the body’s ability to maintain homeostatic balance are genetics, lifestyle choices and environmental exposure.

Answer:

D. The system provided an organized way to classify living things and it has been able to grow and develop. There is a place to enter new organisms as they are discovered or new evidence occurs

Explanation:

Carolus Linnaeus is a Swedish Botanist is universally referred to as the FATHER OF TAXONOMY because of his contribution to the development of a system of naming and classifying species, which is still globally recognized today. Linnaeus proposed the binomial nomenclature system which uses two of the hierarchical classification to name organisms i.e. genus and species. For example, humans are Homo sapiens; Homo (generic name), Sapien (specific name).

Modern scientists later modified Linnaeus classification by adding new ranks in order to accommodate new species and removing incorrectly classified organisms but Linnaeus classification remains the foundation. One important modification was the inclusion of a new taxon called DOMAIN.

The bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus are frequently used in the production of yogurt. These bacteria use lactic acid fermentat
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

A. The bacteria could no longer regenerate the NAD+ needed for glycolysis, so it would stop producing ATP.

Explanation:

According to the given information in this question, Lactobacillus acidophilus is a bacterium species that uses the lactic acid fermentation when there is no oxygen in its cell i.e. under anaerobic conditions. This means that it converts glucose to lactic acid during this anaerobic respiration process.

However, if the lactic acid fermentation pathway were blocked under an anaerobic condition, this means that it will be no longer be able to perform respiration and hence stop production of ATP. This is because the bacteria will no longer regenerate the NAD+ (electron acceptor) needed for glycolysis, so it would stop producing ATP. Note that, all living organisms, whether aerobic or anaerobic, undergo GLYCOLYSIS, which is the first stage of cellular respiration.
