Answer:

CRISPR-Cas9, CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) and Cas 9 (CRISPR-associated protein 9). CRISPR are the DNA sequences present in the genome of bacteria and archaea. Cas 9 is a caspase enzyme that is used to cleave the CRISPR sequence.

CRISPR-Cas9 is a genetic technique that can be used to edit the genetic sequence of organism. This latest technique can be used to treat the cancerous cells. The genetic constituent of cancerous cells can be modified by this technique and used to treat the cancer diseases. The new drugs target can be discovered by using CRISPR-Cas9 technique.

Fishes and other animals that descend lose contact with the main surface food supply and themselves become food for strange deep
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The organisms which sink deep into the sea usually die due to various reasons. This argument can be supported from the fact that plants which are located in the depths of the sea cannot maintain themselves as they cannot photosynthesize in the depths of the sea. As a result they die.

On the other hand, fishes and other animals which move to the depths of the sea are not adapted to live in such environments and become food for other strange animals present there.

Two rodent populations become separated when a large canyon develops in a previously unbroken forest. When is allopatric speciat
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Allopatric speciation occurs due to the geographical isolation between individuals of the same species. The geographical isolation can be due to canyon development, mountain formation, migration, etc.  

The geographical isolation gives different environmental condition to the separated population of same species to live which allow these two population to evolve differently and evolve in different species.

So when two population becomes different species and not able to interbreed with each other when give opportunity then the allopatric speciation between the two populations becomes complete.
