a. people who fund projects deciding to give more money to study genetic modification
b. governments removing restrictions on research on genetic modification

The correct answer is option c, that is, people voting not to allow government money to fund genetic modification research.  

The scientists from the Food and Drug Administration had continuously warned that the genetically modified foods can develop hard to detect and unpredictable side effects, like toxins, allergies, nutritional issues, and new diseases.  

The GM plants, like corn, soybean, canola, and cottonseed, have had foreign genes forced into their DNA. The inserted genes come from species, like viruses and bacteria that have never been in the supply of human food.  

The genetic engineering procedure develops massive collateral destruction, making mutations in several locations all through the DNA of the plant. The natural genes can be permanently turned off or deleted, and many may have modified their behavior.  

Even the gene inserted may get rearranged or damaged, and may produce proteins, which can promote disease or initiate allergies.

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B) "Mendelian".

Explanation:

Transmission genetics is basically the study of how traits and characteristics are passed from one generation to the next. This branch of modern genetics study is also known as “Mendelian Genetics” in honor to Gregor Johann Mendel, the scientist how described the rules of heredity with the study of  the characteristics of pea plants and how they transfer them among the generations.

What traits and trends characterize the primate lineage? Explain.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

  • Hands and feet with 5 fingers
  • Generalized skeleton
  • Large brain

Explanation:

The order primate holds 300 or more species including monkeys, humans, gorillas, chimpanzees among others. The species included in this order share anatomic and functional characteristics such as:

  • Hands and feet with 5 fingers and opposable thumbs, for grabbing, holding a grip for a better arboreal lifestyle. Even though in some species such as humans these opposable thumbs in feet don't longer exist.
  • Plantigrade feet, which means that the toes and metatarsals are flat on the ground while walking.
  • Collarbone or clavicle present.
  • Nails instead of claws in the large majority of species.
  • Color vision.
  • Two brain hemispheres well developed, for special traits like social behaviors and better eye-hand coordination among others.

Describe how ATP is produced in the light reactions.
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Two reactions take place that produce raw materials for the dark stage:  

  1. Light energy splits the water molecules into <em>hydrogen</em> and <em>oxygen</em>
  2. This process is called <u>photolysis  </u>

The hydrogen is taken up by a hydrogen acceptor called Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) while oxygen is released as a by-product  .

2 H₂O(l) --------->light energy -------> 4 H + O₂ (photolysis

)

Light energy strikes the chlorophyll molecules and sets in motion a series of reactions resulting in the production of a high energy molecule called <em>Adenosine Triphosphate</em> (ATP)

Hope this helps.

What's the right blood cell​
Oduvanchick [21]
A normal range in adults is generally considered to be 4.35 to 5.65 million red blood cells per microliter (mcL) of blood for men and 3.92 to 5.13 million red blood cells per mcL of blood for women. In children, the threshold for high red blood cell count varies with age and sex.

Miles is 75 and he has been diagnosed with presbycusis. what can he do to help him cope with this problem
ddd [48]
There are several ways to treat or cope with presbycusis (age-related hearing loss). Here are some of ways:
1. Hearing Aid(s)
2. Implants (Cochlea, Middle ear) - involves surgical operation
3. Lip reading or speech reading training 
4. Hearing assistive devices - sound amplifying devices (cellphones, tablets, etc.)

It would be best to refer to an audiologist or otolaryngologist to for extensive diagnostic evaluation of the gravity of hearing loss and seek proper medical treatment.
