GMOs have a ton of pros and cons, so it's hard to say. Although, I personally would like to avoid them. With the amount of people who have gone gluten free, there's more of a reason for it than being a hipster or a yuppie. Because the demand for wheat is so high, we had to genetically modify it. Although this increased its abundance, a lot of humans' digestive systems haven't evolved with it. That is the reason why it makes so many people sick, because they cant digest it. If the rate at which GMOs are being created and nourished continues, it's likely our digestive systems will reject it, possibly causing famine due to the inability to eat our own food.<span />

Which of the following is not a consequence of partial hydrogenation of vegetable oils?

mixer [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a. "lower melting temperature".

Explanation:

Food makers add hydrogen to vegetable oil in order to make them more solid. The melting point of vegetable oils that go trough a partial hydrogenation process do not lower, actually, the melting point increases. Vegetable oils that are partially hydrogenated are partially saturated, which in consequence increases its melting point to the point that they could be solid at room temperature.

How are genes coordinately controlled in eukaryotic cells? select all that apply?

shutvik [7]

In eukaryotic cells coordinately controlled genes are activated by the same chemical signals. To control elements, specific transcriptions factors bind, and promoting transcription of the coordinately controlled genes happen, regardless of the fact that genes are on separate chromosomes. They do not need to be near each other as well.
