Answer:
In medicine, genetic engineering has been used to mass-produce insulin, human growth hormones, follistim (for treating infertility), human albumin, monoclonal antibodies, antihemophilic factors, vaccines, and many other drugs. In research, organisms are genetically engineered to discover the functions of certain genes.
Explanation:
<h2>It contains toxins</h2><h2>It killed off bird populations.</h2><h2>It caused harm to human populations.</h2>
Explanation:
Let us understand the term DDT
DDT : Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane
- This is a crystalline chemical compound
- Basically used for protecting insects eating crops
- It is colorless, odorless, tasteless
- Initially used as pesticides
It killed off bird populations: Though it does not kill birds directly by consuming, it has indirectly damaged the egg by making the egg's shell too thin which gets broken easily.
It controlled diseases like malaria: Since this option talks about positive attribute of DDT, this option stands invalid. This chemical compound controls mosquitoes attacking the crop.
It caused harm to human populations: DDT causes vomiting, tremors or shakiness, and seizures
It contained toxins: It contains moderate toxins.

Explanation:
<em>Jimmy was right to say organisms grow because their cells grow.</em>
<u>The growth of organisms can happen in terms of an increase in the number of cells they have (through mitotic cell division) or an increase in the volume of the cells with or without an increase in the number of cells. </u>
A good example is found in plants, most of which undergo an increase in size without any increase in the number of cells in their bodies. The uptake and storage of water in the vacuole produces a pressure that pushes on the cell walls, causing an increase in length, girths, and other growth features of the cells of plants.
