Answer:
However, now scientists can also analyze DNA to discover how closely organisms are related. Every living creature has DNA, which has a lot of inherited information about how the body builds itself. Scientists can compare the DNA of two organisms; the more similar the DNA, the more closely related the organisms.
Explanation:
The correct answer is option C, that is, the insects could grow resistant to the pesticide in the genetically-modified corn and become immune to regular pesticides.
The genetically modified organisms are usually developed to be more resistant to pesticides or produce pesticides themselves. The GM crops do not have monarch butterflies or honeybees. However, the insects that consume genetically modified crops can, in some of the circumstances, begins to establish a resistance to the protein that usually kills them.
Controlled population growth.
Explanation:
US is a highly developed country and it has expansive infrastructure and highly mechanized agricultural equipments. So first option is not a choice. Second, access to chemical fertilizers and pesticides in a country with such advanced agriculture infrastructure is very easy. Third US is well known for using GM crops.
US does not have a controlled population growth because if not the birth rate then migration of people to US is a major concern for that country. Thus, this will be a correct choice for the given question.
The correct answer is: stratosphere.
This is because their temperatures are rising instead of decreasing.
There are 4 primary layers of the atmosphere on Earth:
Troposphere (6-20km), the layer that we live in, where the weather occurs. Only nitrogen and oxygen present.
Stratosphere (20-50 km), where the airplanes fly, contains the ozone layer, which absorbs harmful radiation from the sun.
Mesosphere (50-85 km), the coldest region of Earth’s atmosphere (-100 C), protective layer
Thermosphere (80-690), the hottest (1500 C) and the thickest layer which consists of the ionosphere and the exosphere.
