Less tilling thanks to genetically modified herbicide-tolerant crops also means that farmers spend less time on their tractors, using less fuel and reducing carbon emissions. Conservation tillage enabled by genetically modified crops has reduced greenhouse gas emissions on farms globally and can help farmers adapt to and mitigate climate change. In fact, in 2014 5.2 billion pounds of atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions were reduced by conservation tillage and decreased fuel use made possible by genetically modified crops. That’s equal to removing nearly 10 million cars from roads for one year.
According to the USDA, adopting conservation tillage can save at least 3.5 gallons of fuel per acre for farmers who would spend less time on their tractors, reducing emissions. If all of the corn planted in the U.S. (non-genetically modified and genetically modified combined) in 2015 was grown with conservation tillage methods, nearly 308 million gallons of fuel would be saved, equivalent to preventing 6.9 billion pounds of carbon emissions.

The definition of mutation is <span>the changing of the structure of a gene, resulting in a variant form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations, caused by the alteration of single base units in DNA, or the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of larger sections of genes or chromosomes.</span>
Genetic variety in organisms is created through C) Meiosis. mitosis is a stage of the cell cycle and asexual reproduction occurs between only one parent, so not much variety. Cell fission is a form of asexual reproduction in bacteria, archaea, and other unicellular organisms such as diatoms and protozoans.
Since osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration water molecules would move out of the egg into the salt solution in the glass in order to dilute it
