<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>

How do biological systems respond when acids or bases are added?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is - They have substances that counteract acids or bases to prevent the pH from changing

Explanation:

All living organisms including humans are water-based systems, which implies that they rely intensely upon liquid equilibria, particularly acid-base equilibria. Hence, all the acid-base and pH ideas we have talked about so far are critical to the chemistry of organic or biological systems.

This is particularly significant for enzyme, which are proteins that go about as catalysts for all major biological reactions. Most enzymes just work inside a specific pH range. Because all natural cycles are subject to pH, cells and creatures must keep up a particular and consistent pH so as to keep their compounds in the ideal condition of protonation they have specific substances that counteract the acid and base to maintain pH.  

for instance:

The pH of the Cytoplasm is maintained by the phosphate ion

The pH of the blood is regulated by the bicarbonate ion

In general cells that need more energy, since mithocondria are responsible for making and processing ATP.

Common examples of cells with many mithocondria are muscle cells that are in current activity all the time, specially heart muscles and muslces in the respiratory system such as the diafragma since the heart beats all the time, non-stop, that is, unless you die of course and so do the muslces needed to breath.
