Does the water cycle, the nitrogen cycle, and the carbon-oxygen cycle play a role in ecosystem balance? Explain.
Anika [276]

Explanation: The water cycle is also known as the hydrological cycle. It describes how water moves on, above, or just below the surface of our planet. Water molecules move between various locations - such as rivers, oceans and the atmosphere - by specific processes. Water can change state. Nitrogen compounds found in cells include proteins. Nitrogen from the air is converted into soluble ions that plant roots can absorb. It forms part of nitrogen compounds in the plants, and is then passed from one organism to the next. It is returned to the atmosphere as nitrogen gas. This is the nitrogen cycle. The carbon-oxygen cycle is the process by which plants use carbon dioxide for respiration during photosynthesis and produce oxygen. During this process, carbon dioxide becomes part of the plant, and when the plant dies in a carbon-rich state it is possible for it to become a fossil fuel.

Is the practice of genetically modifying human cells ethical? Why or why not?
kumpel [21]

It totally depends upon whether modification is being done in somatic cells or germ cells. Somatic cells modification is ethically accepted because it doesn't pass from one generation to another generation but germline modification is considered as unethical because the modification will pass on to the next generation leading to the persistence of modification in future generations. The problem with genetic modifications is that the impacts of modifications are unpredictable, rather than being fruitful they may lead to lethal mutations so if it occurs in just somatic cells, then even if it is lethal/harmful, it will be confined to only that individual but if a lethal mutation occurs in germ cells then it will pass on to the subsequent generations and it will persist in all future generations.
