The answer is; C

Gene therapy is still not considered safe and has not been approved for humans, especially due to errors in inserting of DNA at the target site and also random relapse of the DNA from its inserted site. Gene therapy, however, can be sanctioned when its benefits outweigh its risks such as in terminally ill patients - with the approval of the patient and local relevant policies/authorities. Gene therapy, today, is being tested with innovative tools called CRISPR/Cas9.

Answer:

The answer is down below.

Explanation:

Estuaries

-More than 80 percent of all fish and shellfish species use estuaries as primary habitat or as a spawning or nursery ground.

-Estuaries are often called the “nurseries of the sea”.

-Estuaries and their surrounding wetlands are bodies of water usually found where rivers meet the sea.

Abiotic factors

In an estuarine ecosystem, these factors are light, oxygen, water, nutrients, temperature, salinity, and space. So just divide these into three.

Biotic factors

These include plants and animals such as shrimp, fish, and oysters
