Answer:
D. Biotechnology
Explanation:
Biotechnology is the use of biological processes, living organisms, or biological systems to manufacture useful products in order to improve the quality of human life.
Biotechnology covers many disciplines such as genetic engineering, biochemistry, molecular biology, medicine, agriculture etc. In medicine, biotechnology has been applied in the development of medicines and therapies, etc. In agriculture, biotechnology is applied in the development of genetically modified plants, biofuels, biological treatment as well as to solve other agriculture-related issues. In the industries, through genetic engineering, simple cells and proteins has been engineered to produce useful chemicals such as drugs, hormones, etc.
Since George's studies involves cell culturing and genetics of plants in order to develop technology that will improve plant production and solve other agriculture-related problems, he is studying Biotechnology.
Answer:
Sympatric speciation
Explanation:
There may be more than one answer here, but concerning speciation, sympatric speciation can't occur because of the geographic isolation (must be living in the same environment for this to occur).
<span>This question can be solved using Hardy-Weinberg equation. The equation would be:
a+b=1
</span>a^2+2ab+b^2=1
<span>There are 360 individual with genotype bb which means
b^2=360/1000
b=</span>√0.36= 0.6
The frequency of b allele would be: 0.6
Let us solve first the
phenotype of this problem.
Starchy grain = AA (dominant)
Sugary Corn = aa (recessive)
AA x aa = AaAa ; AaAa
<span> A A</span>
<span>a Aa Aa</span>
<span>a Aa Aa</span>
The result of the cross is
that the progeny will become heterozygous.
<span>If there is 58 progeny
sugary, there will also be 58 starchy. It is 50%.</span>
