Answer:
II. A soybean crop modified to posess herbicide resistance
III. A farm-raised pig engines to digest food more efficiently
Explanation:
The organisms listed have been modified
Answer:
The correct answers are:
1. stratospheric ozone depletion
2. climate change
3. desertification/land degradation
4. freshwater decline
5. biodiversity loss.
Explanation:
1) Stratospheric ozone depletion- ozone layer is the protective layer around the earth that protects us from harmful rays such as UV rays coming from the sun. There are depletions or holes in the ozone layer in some parts of Australia and therefore, therefore leading to skin cancer.
2) climatic change - The change in the average temperature or precipitation of an area that takes place due to global warming that changes the earth's climate is changing rapidly.
3) desertification or land degradation - It occurs due to past overuse of fertilizer or barren land that has zero crop yield.
4 )freshwater decline - freshwater is an essential part of the irrigation of crops in agriculture and due to the downfall of groundwater its decline the freshwater produce in these parts.
5) biodiversity loss - Coral reefs are habitats for many aquatic organisms and used as various ways of biodiversity. If there is a loss or decrease in their numbers it will affect and decline the biodiversity of the area.
This is the answer hope it helps, have a good day
The genetic code is considered universal because the same four nucleotide bases are used by all known organisms
Answer:
4. The suspected causative agent must be isolated from the diseased host and grown in pure culture
Explanation:
Robert Koch (1843-1910) was one of the most important bacteriologists of all time. Famous for discovering the tuberculosis bacillus (precisely on March 24, such as today, in 1882), he also discovered the cholera bacillus and is considered the founder of bacteriology. He worked on the isolation of infectious agents and reinfections from pure cultures, experiences from which he established the "Koch Postulates".
These postulates have been taken as a reference that describes the etiology of all the causative agents of an infectious disease, although they were originally used to describe only the tuberculosis bacillus. They are the following:
1- The agent must be present in each case of the disease and absent in the healthy.
2- The agent should not appear in other diseases.
3- The agent must be isolated in a pure culture from the lesions of the disease.
4- The agent has to cause the disease in an animal that can be inoculated
