<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The purpose of genetically modified crops is increasing the food supply.  </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>When crops are attacked by pests the yield of the crops reduces.</em> The natural pest tackling adaptations of the plant is not just enough to check the invasion of crops by pests. Introducing feature of pest resistance into the <em>genes of plant species will make them pest resistant.</em>  

Genetic modification is the method used to achieve this objective. In genetic modification a previously absent feature is introduced into a plant species by various scientific techniques.<em> This feature can be pest resistance, chemical resistance, improved nutrient profile etc.  </em>

True or false: male and female embryos look the same anatomically at five weeks of pregnancy.
Marizza181 [45]

The statement is true. The male and female embryos anatomically look same at five weeks of pregnancy.

In the 4th week of pregnancy the blastocysts gets implanted in the walls of uterus and develops into the placenta and then becomes an embryo. The embryo is considered starting from the point when the amniotic sac develops which is at the starting of the 5th week of pregnancy. By the 12th week of pregnancy the organs are developed such as arms and legs but the brain and spinal cord keeps developing throughout the pregnancy.

The second trimester begins at the 13th week of the pregnancy and by the 14th week the gender can be identified. So the male and female embryos are anatomically same at 5th week of the pregnancy.
