Answer:

1: the exploitation of biological processes for industrial and other purposes, especially the genetic manipulation of microorganisms for the production of antibiotics, hormones, etc.

2: Genetic engineering, the artificial manipulation, modification, and recombination of DNA or other nucleic acid molecules in order to modify an organism or population of organisms.

3: Genetically Modified Organisms

4: Selective breeding is a form of genetic modification which doesn't involve the addition of any foreign genetic material (DNA) into the organism. Rather, it is the conscious selection for desirable traits.

5:Selective breeding (also called artificial selection) is the process by which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular phenotypic traits (characteristics) by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together.

6:The use of genetic engineering and the creation of genetically modified crops has resulted in many benefits for the agricultural world. ... By modifying crops so that they are resistant to diseases and insects, less chemical pesticides have to be used to combat diseases and pests.

7:It is known that the main concerns about adverse effects of GM foods on health are the transfer of antibiotic resistance, toxicity and allergenicity. There are two issues from an allergic standpoint.

4) True

5) Genetic Selection or Artificial Selection

6) By modifying crops so that they are resistant to disease and insects, less chemical pesticides have to be used to combat disease and pests

7) The consumers are mainly concerned about the long term human health effects of the bio-tech crops such as antibiotic resistance, aller-genicity, unnatural nutritional changes and toxicity. Agri-biotech companies and their affiliated scientists present GM food as an environmentally friendly crop.

8) I think that is very good for the environment and for human health because this is going to reduce the use of chemical pesticides on agriculture and GM food would be friendly crop

Tasya [4]

Answer: Every stable population has one or more factors that limit its growth. A limiting factor determines the carrying capacity for a species. A limiting factor can be any biotic or abiotic factor: nutrient, space, and water availability are examples. The size of a population is tied to its limiting factor.  The environment, what food is there and what predators live there. How much food they get and if they are decreasing from weather, predators etc.

After ovulation, the corpus luteum releases _____ to prepare the endometrium for implantation.
ivolga24 [154]

After ovulation, the corpus luteum releases progesterone and estrogen to prepare the endometrium for implantation.

What is ovulation?

Ovulation is the process in which a mature egg is released from the ovary. After it's released, the egg moves down the fallopian tube and stays there for 12 to 24 hours, where it can be fertilized.

Sperm can live inside the female reproductive tract as long as five days after sexual intercourse under the right conditions.

Your chance of getting pregnant is highest when live sperm are present in the fallopian tubes during ovulation.

In an average 28-day menstrual cycle, ovulation typically occurs about 14 days before the start of the next menstrual period.

However, each person's cycle length may be different, and the time between ovulation and the start of the next menstrual period may vary.
