Here’s one! Huge farming companies genetically modified foods to withstand round up. You might know round up as a weed killer. It’s marketed safe with no harming chemicals to humans. That is completely wrong and have been proven to cause many chronic illnesses including cancer. These foods are modified to not react with round up and only to kill the weeds all around the plants. Even though the food looks ok it’s really not. The round up is all over the food. Then we eat it and well bad chemicals get absorbed into are body.

I hope this is some of what you were looking for. If not I hope you enjoyed my fun fact ;) good luck.

What are the two major components of extracellular matrix?
Advocard [28]

The two main components of the extracellular matrix are Elastin and Collagen.

The extracellular matrix is an intricate macromolecular network that is found in the extracellular space. The matrix is composed of polysaccharides and very diverse proteins, locally secreted and assembled forming a complex network that surrounds the cells. The matrix is highly developed in connective tissue and its derivatives. The extracellular matrix is formed mainly by proteins, glycosaminoglycans,proteoglycans and glycoproteins, organized in diverse networks that constitute the different tissues. <em>The most abundant proteins are collagen and elastin.</em>

Collagen is a family of very abundant proteins in the body of animals. Collagen molecules can represent 25 to 30 % of all body proteins. Its main mission in the tissues is to form a framework that supports the tissues and that resists the forces of mechanical tension.

The elastin molecules are very close to each other through links between the regions rich in the amino acid lysine. It is an abundant protein in may extracellular matrices and appears as a component of the so called elastic fibers, which are onsoluble aggregates of proteins.

The information in the table shows the possible genotypes resulting from the mating of two heterozygotes aadd. the allele a code
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Admitting that the "a" is a capital A for normal pigmentation and "d" is a capital D for dimpled chin, meaning that these are the dominant traits, the fraction expected to be albino with a non-dimpled chin is of 1/16.
When two heterozygous are crossed and two characteristics are being analysed, the offspring quantity that will possess the two recessive traits can be represented by 1/16. This is easily confirmed when a Punnett square is made. Considering that both parents were heterozygous, on both sides of the crossing in the Punnett square, you would have the following alleles' combination: AD, Ad, aD, and ad. The offspring that would be homozygous recessive (aadd) would correspond to only 1/16.

Which is an abiotic factor that can be found in a rain forest ecosystem?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

A. Air

Explanation:

Abiotic factors are things that are not living.

Air can be found in a rain forest ecosystem, as it can be found in all ecosystems, but it is not living.

On the other hand, algae, flowers, and animals are biotic instead of abiotic because they are living things.

So, A is the correct answer.
