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.

Cells will usually divide if they receive the proper signal at a checkpoint in which phase of the cell cycle? see concept 12.3 (
NeTakaya
The correct answer is the interphase.

The cell cycle consists of three phases: the interphase (G1, S, G2) the mitotic (M) phase, and cytokinesis. <span>The first checkpoint of the cell cycle is G1 checkpoint which is between G1 and S phase when cell checks its size, nutrients, molecular signals, DNA integrity. The second checkpoint is G2, just before the mitotic phase, when cell checks DNA integrity and DNA replication. Those two checkpoints are the ones before division, other like M checkpoint is during the mitosis.</span>

You perform a study in which humans can choose to eat proteins, lipids/carbohydrates, and/or vitamins/minerals. Due to your adva
Advocard [28]

Answer:

It depends...

Explanation:

Group 1 is trying to obtain energy, so as we know that lipids and carbohydrates are the basic source of energy because of their storage properties and generation of ATP during glycolysis and lipid metabolism in our body.

Group 2  is trying to obtain nutrients so to rebuild their molecules and body cells they must take enough quantities of vitamins/minerals for that. Proteins are also crucial to for rebuilding lipo-proteins in cell wall of cell amke them crucial for them. They also play an important role in muscle cell repair and replacement due to their primary composition of actin and myosin filaments.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

For number 3:

The bacterial cell is a prokaryotic cell and the fungal cell is a eukaryotic cell.

Explanation:

I cannot see the cells to answer number 4, but for number three, bacteria is a prokaryote and fungal cells are eukaryotes. You can most likely determine this by the presence of a nucleus (a prokaryote cell will not have one where a eukaryotic cell will).
