Answer:

Moth populations should be monitored in both, normal wheat and engineered wheat

Explanation:

Genetically engineered wheat crop means that the genome of the wheat is being manipulated by the techniques of biotechnology. Gene for the resistance to moths is introduced into wheat in order for plant to become protected. Determination of resistance should be performed via monitoring of control group (normal wheat, not resistance to moth) and engineered wheat (potentially resistant) and their comparation. Moth population should be decreased in the resistance plants.

If a large molecule needs to move against the concentration gradient, what structure will need to be used ?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

If a large molecule need to move against the concentration gradient the struc of an energy rich compound such as Adenosine tri phosphate or ATP is need to be used.

Explanation:

ATP provides energy to carry out the uphill transport of molecule across the plasma membrane by the helps of specific ion channel.Uphill transport is a type of membrane transport process in which a molecule is being transported against its concentration gradient that means the molecule is moving from low concentration region to high concentration region.

                In general this type of transport is Thermodynamically unfavorable which is made favorable by  the energy derived from the hydrolysis of ATP .

The body mass index (bmi) of an adopted child will be ________ related to the bmi of the adoptive parents and ________ related t
xxTIMURxx [149]

The body mass index BMI of an adopted child will be not at all related to the BMI of the adoptive parents and strongly related to the BMI of the biological parents. The father and mother whose DNA a child inherits are commonly referred to as the child's biological parents.

Although they are not need to be blood relations, as in the case of an adopted child, legal parents have a legal family connection to the child. There are 8 different words that can be used in place of the word biological-parent on this page, including birth-father, biological-father, birth-mother, birth-parent, birth parent, father, mother, and natural parent.
