Answer with Explanation:

Let's briefly check each option.

1. Satellites

Weather satellites are used to monitor weather condition of Earth from Space. This is done by collecting data and later on using it for analysis and generating predictive models. Three types of satellites are mainly used:

  • Polar orbiting satellites.
  • Geostationary satellites.
  • Deep space satellites

2. Weather Balloons

Weather balloons are attached with a sensor known as Radiosonde to collect data. Radiosondes are our primary source of upper-air data. As the balloon flies in the air, the sensor collects and sends weather data continuously. Eventually the balloon bursts due to low external pressure.

3. Automated Weather Stations

Automated weather stations, also called ASOS (automated surface observing systems), are used to continuously monitor weather conditions on the Earth’s surface. These systems update data at a frequency of up to 12 times an hour. Data involves surface visibility, precipitation, humidity, temperature and wind intensity.

Weather fronts, maps and charts are prepared after data is collected and hence are not used for gathering data

Explain how DNA samples made it possible to identify victims found at Creompaz.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

DNA samples made it possible to identify victims found at Creompaz because the DNA found in the bones of the victims matched the DNA from families that were wanting the remains of their family back. They also took DNA from clothes and matched DNA.

What are frankenfoods? Are Genetically Modefied foods safe?
barxatty [35]

Opponents of GMOs have been unceasing in their campaign to vilify genetically modified foods by describing them as “Frankenfoods,” thus implying they are not natural and are potentially harmful.

“The practice of introducing new DNA and chemicals to seeds or animals (Aqua Advantage has developed a GMO fish) is similar to how Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein created his monster–—through piecing together lots of different organisms,” wrote the Organic Authority on its website—a common allusion in the anti-GMO world. “We all know what happened when the monster turned on Frankenstein, and many critics of genetic engineering have likened the inevitable backlash of GMO technology to the destruction and murderous rampage of Frankenstein’s monster.”

Many anti-GMO articles that warn of the dangers GM crops are often accompanied by an image of a tomato fruit or vegetable with syringes sticking out of them. Very often it is a fruit or vegetable for which there is no current GM equivalent such as a tomato. This depiction is used to reinforce the notion that GM foods are created in laboratories and not by nature and therefore are dangerous to consume.

With the constant barrage of scare-based imagery, it is not surprising that there is widespread public suspicion that GMOs are dangerous to human health. But there is little controversy surrounding GMOs within the scientific community with 88 percent of the members of the American Association for the Advancement of Science believing GMOs are “generally safe.” The safety of GMOs were once again reinforced by the May 2016 report by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, which concluded, there was “reasonable evidence that animals were not harmed by eating food derived from genetically engineered crops”, and epidemiological data indicated there was no increase in cancer or other health related problems associated with these crops entering our food supply.

David Zilberman, a professor of agriculture and resource economics at the University of California, Berkley, has noted that Frankenfood was “a terrible word, a stigmatization word, one that’s used to scare people… People are afraid of GMOs for little or no reason. GM is simply a tool. Because it allows us to modify plants with far greater precision and control then before, it will be very valuable.”

The reality is that the vast bulk of the foods we consume whether organic or conventionally grown have had their genetics altered in the field or in a laboratory via a process of selective breeding or advanced biotechnology techniques, and all such foods are safe to eat. The altering of genes in plants is even known to occur naturally as highlighted by the sweet potato.
