Answer:

C. IBIB

D. IBiO

Explanation:

The blood group system comprises of three different kind of alleles, iA, iB, IO. As we know that a person gets two alleles for both traits, one from father and one from mother, and based on that a person gets its blood group. IA and IB are dominant to IO.

So, if a person has genotype IAIO he will have blood group A and if he has genotype IOIB he will have blood group B because A or B are dominant to O.

However, if a person has blood group O it means that he has genotype IOIO.

So, in this diagram we see that Eric has blood type O, which means that his genotype will be IOIO.

The Eric's mother Melissa has blood group B, which means that she can either had genotype IOIB and IBIB respectively.

Similarly, Eric's grandmother Tricia has genotype  B which means that she can have genotype both  IOIB and IBIB respectively.

Therefore, both C and D are correct options.

You are a farmer who has been noticing that many of your crops are getting destroyed as a result of pests. You hear about a new
quester [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

the advantages include:

disease and drought resistant crops that require fewer environmental resources for them to grow

higher yields harvested as the crops are not attacked by pests resulting in humans receiving more food as well as generating more money from the trading of their crops

increased supply of food at a cheaper life and the crops could have a longer shelf life

crops bound to be healthy as they ae not constantly treated by pesticides that could harm people

reduce the use of pesticides that might be a great move for the betterment of the food supply

they reduce the use of toxins that could harm the environment as well as the animals and people

disadvantages

unexpected or harmful genetic changes that could result in humans health being threatened

the process of genetically modifying the crops is quite expensive

due to the plants becoming pest resistant the pests are bound to have no food hence could die leading to some helpful pests such as beetles or ladybugs that actually benefit the environment going extinct

the production of genetically modified crops results in the disruption of biodiversity as you are favouring one specific organism hence resulting in the disruption of the natural gene flow

the crops are modified hence biotech foods may be a threat to the human health
