Answer:

Patented genetically engineered products increase the cost to obtain the product, affecting all consumers involved.
Damage to land and organisms is unknown.
The amount of land used for genetically engineered crops increased.
Health risks, if any, are unknown at this time.
Gene transfer to nontarget species cannot be controlled.

Answer:

due to gmos we can expand the shelf life of many of our foods and prevent them from the harm of pests. You night be rhinking why not use pesticides? well, we did but eventually the pests became immune to the low dose of pesticide. over time we gradually increased our uses of pesticides. more commonly round up. this pesticide specifically was known for being a carcinogen. (something that causes cancer.) Genetically modifying a crop can severely decrease the amount of pesticides used for our crops and could also potentially drop the prices. for example, in hawaii during the 1940s to 1990s the ringspot viruses hit the hawaiian papaya harvest hard. this reduced the amount of papaya produced by 50 percent by 1993 and 2006. the ringspot virus nearly wiped out the entire crop. within 11 months, the hawaiian papya was saved. due to gmos of course. this is because scientists took genes from immune papayas which very rarelt occured (at the time) and injected it into many other papya plants. as the plants grew, new papaya was produced which was immine to ringspit virus. PAPAYA WAS SAVED!!!!

Answer:The rocks are smooth due to the water eroding the rocks.

Explanation:

The water slowly takes off minerals of the rocks every time is splashes over them. Over time the rocks bumpy surface would be eroded away giving it a smoother surface.

If a cytosine base is substituted for by a thymine base in a DNA segment during DNA replication, the sequence could code for the wrong amino acid during translation.

The change in the sequence of DNA is known as mutation.

When a base substitution occurs in the sequence of a DNA during replication, the genetic information in the region where the substitution occurred becomes compromised.

During transcription, the process of encoding genetic information on DNA into RNA, the base substituted is also transcribed along. If cytosine is substituted by thymine, adenine is transcribed instead of guanine.

During the translation of the genetic codes, the wrong amino acids might end up being translated due to the substituted base, leading to a faulty protein.
