Answer:
Explanation:
Three-parent baby, human offspring produced from the genetic material of one man and two women through the use of assisted reproductive technologies, specifically mitochondrial manipulation (or replacement) technologies and three-person in vitro fertilization (IVF). In general, the reproductive technologies used to produce three-parent babies focus on replacing or otherwise reducing the effects of mutations that occur in the DNA of cellular organelles known as mitochondria, which reside in the cell cytoplasm. The various approaches could help women to overcome infertility and could prevent the transmission to their offspring of potentially debilitating mitochondrial diseases.
Answer:
B. Gives similar scores every time it is used
Here's the fact:
"Altering the DNA of plants always reduces the nutritional content" is a FALSE statement. In fact, GMO products often have nutrients added.
"<span>Genetic modification reduces the genetic variation in both plants and animals" is a TRUE statement. The natural genetic variation that keeps species thriving is decreased when the plants are modified. Less diversity within a species puts it at an increased risk of being affected by disease or even becoming extinct. Genetic diversity causes resilience, since not every strain of a species will die off in the case of contracting a disease because they are all different. The more similar species are, the more they are at risk. However, so long as companies make variations of GMO foods, we should be fine.
"There have not been enough long-term studies to prove that this food is safe" is a TRUE statement. Some modern studies say genetically modified foods bad, some say they're good, some say they're neutral; however, since GMOs have only been a thing since 1994, there are no long term studies. Without long term studies, there is no way to confirm the safety of GMO foods.
"There have been many studies showing that these foods cause disease" is a FALSE statement. There have been many studies of GMO foods, but many haven't found any worthwhile data, except a few allergies.
Answer: There have not been enough long-term studies to prove that this food is safe.

Answer:
Anaphase of meiosis II
Explanation:
I think you are asking during which phase of cell division sister chromatids are mostly likely to fail to separate properly, a phenomenon that can lead to genetic disease.
This is sometimes called non-disjunction, and it is most likely to occur in anaphase during meiosis II. During this stage, sister chromatids of the two daughter cells produced by meiosis 1 are separated and brought to opposite parts of the cell. If something goes wrong at this stage, the sister chromatids can fail to separate properly, meaning the daughter cells do not have the correct number of chromosomes (see attachment).
An example of such a genetic disorder is Down syndrome
