Answer:

the elephants , the locusts, crown-of thomas starfish,cattle,common carp

Explanation:

Elephants are the world's largest and most powerful land animals, so it's not surprising they have a profound impact on the ecosystem.

The locust swarm of lore is one life phase of a type of short-horned grasshopper. It's a phase that can become a plague under the right conditions.

This large starfish gets its name from the venomous, long spines that cover its body. They live among and feed on coral polyps. When the species becomes overpopulated, it can destroy vast coral reef ecosystems. In fact, widespread destruction of the Great Barrier Reef is partly blamed on these sea stars, which have experienced a population explosion over the last decade or so.

According to the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, cattle farming is responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gases. Cattle emit a large volume of methane through burping and flatulence. Cattle ranching is also a major source of deforestation around the world, most notably in South America's Amazon rain forest.

The common carp is a true bottom feeder, uprooting and disturbing submerged vegetation. These fish are notorious for altering their environment.

Risk of using bio pharmaceuticals

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The potential risks associated with plant-based pharmaceuticals include: pollen transfer to related species, contamination of non-transgenic crops intended for the consumption by humans, allergic reactions to the drugs produced from the genetically engineered plant, and persistence of genetically engineered material to persist in the environment and accumulate in non-target organisms. Risk assessment of plant-made pharmaceuticals should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis because the plants used to produce proteins each have different risks associated with them.

Which statements correctly describe mutations in gametes and mutations in somatic cells?

sergeinik [125]

The mutation in the somatic cells is known as somatic mutations. As they do not take place in the cells, which give rise to gametes, thus, the mutation is not inherited to the next generation by the sexual means.

On the other hand, the genetic mutations take place in the germline cells, that is, egg and sperm, because of this the mutations possesses the tendency to get passed on from one generation to another.

Thus, mutations are only passed on to offspring when they take place in germ cell DNA. The other kind of cells, the somatic cells refers to the rest of the cells in the body and mutations, which takes place in these cells do not get inherited further to the offspring.

Hence, the correct statements are mutations to gametes can be passed on to an organism's offspring and mutations to somatic cells are only present in the type of cell in which the mutation occurred.
