Biotechnology is a growing field of applied biology. Many crops, such as corn, have been engineered to be resistant to herbicide

s. Therefore, farmers can spray these chemicals to kill weeds growing near the crops without worries of killing the crop itself.
How does this type of biotechnology work?

Answer:

Corn crop is resistant to herbicides because they are genetically modified through genetic engineering. There are some bacteria which are resistant to herbicides i. e. no effect of chemicals on that bacteria. So the biotechnologist take a gene from this resistant bacteria and induced it in the corn plant which becomes the part of their genetic makeup. So when we apply herbicide, the gene produces some enzymes which cancel the adverse affect of herbicide and only weeds are affected.

Bias can happen in sampling. The propensity of a sample statistic to systematically under- or over-approximate a population is referred to as bias.

 

 

To add, in statistics, sampling bias is a bias in which a sample is collected in such a way that some members of the intended population are less likely to be included than others.

 

The following are some types of biases in Statistics:

 

Selection bias includes individuals being more likely to be chosen for study than others, biasing the sample. This can also be termed Berksonian bias

 

In statistical hypothesis testing, a test is said to be unbiased if for some alpha level (between 0 and 1), the probability the null is not accepted is less than or equal to the alpha level for the entire parameter space defined by the null hypothesis, while the probability the null is rejected is greater than or equal to the alpha level for the entire criterion space interpreted by the alternate hypothesis.
