Answer:

Genetic engineering can be described as a process in which the DNA of an organism is modified to change its characteristics or phenotype.

DNA modification occurs when a 'gene of interest' is taken from an organism and introduced into a vector such as a plasmid. Or this gene or piece of DNA might directly be incorporated into another organism. The gene of interest incorporated into the DNA of a host will be able to express itself.

Which star has an temperature of 10,000 K and a Luminosity of 10^2

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

i think White Dwarf

Explanation:

We are given that the star has a temperature of 10,000 K and a luminosity of 10^2. According to the HR diagram, a star with the surface temperature of 10,000 K would be a white dwarf and if the star were on the main sequence, then it would have a luminosity nearly 100 times more than that of the sun. However since the actual luminosity is 10,000 times smaller than this, this star must be a white dwarf since it has 10,000 K and 100 aka 10^2 luminosity
