Biology
1 answer:
quester [9]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

GM crops can be described as the variety of crop plants which have been modified through the recombinant DNA technology.

GMO'S are used in agricultural crops to :

1) Increase the amount of nutrients in a crop plant: As the population of humans is rising enormously, we need more food to survive on. The production of GM crops allows more food with better nutrition quality to be produced in a shorter time. For example, Golden rice is a GM crop which has increased levels of Vitamin A in it to meet the needs of Vitamin A in under-developed countries.

2) Produce Disease Resistant Crops: GM crops are a way to produce disease-resistant crops which will be disease-free and hence help in raising the economy. For example, orange trees are being produced by this method which is resistant to citrus greening disease.

3) Pest Resistant crops: Growing pests resistant plants are one of the major concerns of recombinant crops as a wide variety of pests infect the natural plants. For example, BT cotton is being produced which is resistant to the combat bollworm pest.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

It can be concluded that CFS has no effect on the light production of V.harveyi.

Explanation:

The both tube contain same cell concentration of V.harveyi.Now CFS is added from a light producing V.fischeri which ultimate result in the production of light by V.harveyi.

      On the other hand V.harveyi cells present on another tube can itself produce light because according to the question fresh media is added in this tube inplace of CFS.

V.harveyi of both tubes produces same amount of light.From this point of view it can be stated that V.harveyi itself can generate light, it does not need addition of any CFS from outside.
