Answer:

When scientists take the genes of two different species and combine them, we call this genetic engineering.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering is a collective term for the molecular techniques used to alter an organism's inheritance. The techniques range from inactivating a gene or introducing a small change in a gene (a single inheritance system) to transferring genes from one organism to another. A genetically modified organism is often referred to as a transgenic organism.

Genetic engineering is used for example in biotechnology and medicine. For example, insulin or human growth hormone is produced in bacteria and insect and / or herbicide resistant cereals are grown for commercial use.

Of course, in addition to genetic engineering being a technically difficult area, it also involves ethical aspects, especially in terms of human application and animal cloning.

. Describe one of your personality traits that you believe to be highly heritable and another trait that seems to be much less s
zepelin [54]

Inheritable personality traits include:

*Smoking habits

*Overall addictions

Less heritable traits include:

*Happiness/angriness

*Learned behavior

Three environmental factors that may influence behavior are:

*Behavior of parents/guardians

*Housing community

*Acquaintances/friends

*Upbeat/peaceful cultural gatherings

Genetics play less of a part in the development of certain personality traits, especially when compared to the environment, because most of it comes from learned behaviors and the activities of other around us. Even things that we expect to be genetic, like eye color, are influenced by the environment (in a different way, of course).

Here's a nice paragraph for you:

A personality trait that is more inheritable than others is smoking/addiction patterns. A child whose mother or father (or both) smoke is much more likely to pick up on smoking than one whose parents don't. As for one that is less heritable, angriness is definitely more influenced by past experiences and the environment in general. Someone with generally angry parents could be the happiest person due to different experiences with life. A child who lives in an aggressive household is more likely to exude anger than one who lives in a happy and calm one. Thus, it is clear that the environment plays the greatest influence on the development of most traits. It even, under some circumstances, can determine the appearance of traits that we expect to be 100% caused by genetics -- even if only .1% is caused by [it].

What is the filler material that makes up the matrix in majority of the connective tissue?
Fofino [41]
Connective tissue is distinguished from the other types in that the extracellular material (matrix) usually occupies more space than the cells do, and the cells are relatively far apart. Fat is an exception, having cells in close contact with each other; but with large, nonliving, <span>intracellular lipid </span>droplets, fat contains much more nonliving material than living material.
