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.

Which could be a pathway of food through an ecosystem?​
algol13

Answer:

Sun > Grass > Deer > Lion

Explanation:

The sun begins a food chain because its light is needed for a plant, in this case grass, to grow.

An animal that eats grass is the deer, who is a primary consumer.

An animal that eats deer is the lion, who is a tertiary consumer in this case.

The lion has no natural predator, and thus is at the top of this food chain.

This ecosystem can be one found where grass, deer and lions exist, for example, the deciduous forest in the eastern United States.
