The number of electrons in the outermost shell determines essentially the type of chemical reactions that an atom participates in it is because these electrons are involved in chemical reactions as they can be donated, shared and thus rearranged by forming covalent bonds to produce new substances

Which of the following statements is correct regarding engineering maize plants with a herbicide-resistance gene using Agrobacte
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

b. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into the T-DNA region of the Ti-plasmid.

Explanation:

Ti-plasmid has the ability to introduce part of its DNA (t-DNA) into the genome of host plants. This is very important for the relationship of genetic manipulation in maize plants, with the aim of inducing a gene that promotes herbicide resistance. In addition, T-DNA has many genes that code for the production of plant growth phytohormones, which is extremely important for the cloning process to work. In this case, we can assume that the correct answer for yours is the letter B.

If the stimulus cintinues to be presented for an additional number of trials, then, although no further changes occur, the response will exhibit lower levels of recovery (e.g, spontaneous recovery is reduced) as if the response would have fallen below a zero frequency.
