Answer:

The correct answer is C improve agricultural technologies to increase crop yield.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering is the heart of molecular biology.Genetic engineering is used to produce various genetically modified plant to improve crop yield.

     To do this many procuderes of recombinant DNA technology is applied to make the crop herbicide resistant,parasite resistant,flood resistant,drought resistant etc.Beside this maximum hybrid crops are planted to increase the crop yield within a small period of time.This ultimately decreasing the nutritional value of food value of the crops.

   Beside this many chemical fertilizers are being used to increase the crop yield but the more usage of chemical fertilizers decreases the fertility of the soil.

Why do scientist use models
Maurinko [17]

Models are useful simplifications to aid understanding. ... It can then be used to explain further phenomena and to make predictions of future behaviour.

Which characteristic of viruses prevents them from being used as evidence to support cell theory?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Viruses replicate only inside host cells.

Explanation:

<u>Viruses are not used as evidence to support the cell theory because they are not considered a cell and cannot carry out vital life processes without getting into host cells. </u>

According to the cell theory, the cell is the basic unit of life, all living organisms are made up of cells and cells arose from preexisting cells. A virus that is not in a host cell is just a piece of DNA/RNA surrounded by a protein coat and is not capable of carrying out any life process for it to be considered living.

<em>Viruses are only able to reproduce and multiply when they get access to a living host. They use the genetic mechanisms of the host to replicate their DNA/RNA using the lytic or lysogenic cycle. Hence, they are not used to support the cell theory. </em>

Explain why a sound wave cannot travel in a vacuum?
Leto [7]
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work in.
