Answer:

a. The Bt toxin could negatively affect the taste of the food that is produced from these crops.

c. The Bt toxin could result in the death of non-pest species of insects. d. The Bt gene could ultimately make the plants pathogenic to humans.

Explanation:

Genetically engineered crops couldn't harm the economy. They are made to benefit economy, as it's shown in the following quote:

"The commercialization of genetically modified (GM) crops has continued to occur at a rapid rate, with important changes in both the overall level of adoption and impact occurring in 2012.

This annual updated analysis shows that there have been very significant net economic benefits at the farm level amounting to $18.8 billion in 2012 and $116.6 billion for the 17-year period (in nominal terms)."

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

The journal entry which is to be posted on December 31, is as:

Rent receivable A/c............................Dr   $4,400

        Rent Earned A/c...............................Cr    $4,400

As the two months rent is not paid so the adjusting entry which is to be posted is that the rent receivable account is debited whereas the rent earned account is credited with the amount of two months rent. (which is $2,200 + $2,200 = $4,400).

telo118 [61]

Answer:

buying a franchise of a well-established restaurant.

Explanation:

A franchise business model is a business arrangement where the owner or 'franchisor' sells the rights of a business to ' franchisee' who operates an independent outlet.  The rights that a franchisee acquires include business name, logo,  business and operating models.  Examples of known franchises are MacDonald,  subway, and Starbucks.

The biggest advantage Eduardo will gain by purchasing a franchise is that he will get instant access to a well-established brand name.  Eduardo does not need to spend resources on creating a name, or products to introduce to customers. An established franchise will provide him with customers,  a management model, and a chance to succeed.
