The neurons function such that the form an intricate circuitry which is directly or indirectly has influence on brain tissues and other cellular components. The neuronal circuitry is affected by brain injury causing the death of glial cells and neurons and the connection is destroyed between them.

Brain injury mainly results from trauma or strokes and the components that are damaged include neurons, glial cells like microglia, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, the blood vessels and cells producing and recycling the cerebrospinal fluid or CSF that lines up the ventricles in brain. The blood flow is disrupted and the blood-brain barrier is also affected. The production, distribution and the re-absorption of the cerebrospinal fluid brings about changes in the metabolism and functioning of the cells in proximity of the dying tissues and also in remote brain regions which are connected anatomically to the injured area.

What are some possible consequences if transgenic salmon escape from their pens into the ocean population?
babunello [35]

Answer:

If the transgenic salmon escapes from their pens into the ocean population there are chances that they would compete with the wild salmons for food and space. They may also bring new diseases and changes to the food webs and ecosystem of the ocean.

Explanation:

A transgenic organism or genetically modified organism is the one that undergoes alternation through recombinant DNA technology.

No, I do not think that FDA should approve Aquabounty of growing and selling transgenic salmon since there is higher chance that they may interfere and disturb with the ecosystem and might also bring new diseases.
