Sever21 [200]3 years ago
8 0
In dog waste, there is a chemical called fecal coliform bacteria. this bacteria is harmful to plants and animals alike, if this compost was used on plants, eating the plants would be bad news. the bacteria can cause cramps, diarrhea, intestinal illnesses, and even serious kidney issues in people. dog poop mostly carries these things

Whipworms

Hookworms

Roundworms

Tapeworms

Parvo

Corona

Giardiasis

Salmonellosis

Cryptosporidiosis

Campylobacteriosis

pet droppings contribute to diseases spread from animals to people called zoonoses, using the pet poop in the compost can make the bacteria linger for years, making further crops infected too.

(really hope this helps!)

What is the purpose of genetically modified crops?
Sliva [168]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The purpose of genetically modified crops is increasing the food supply.  </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>When crops are attacked by pests the yield of the crops reduces.</em> The natural pest tackling adaptations of the plant is not just enough to check the invasion of crops by pests. Introducing feature of pest resistance into the <em>genes of plant species will make them pest resistant.</em>  

Genetic modification is the method used to achieve this objective. In genetic modification a previously absent feature is introduced into a plant species by various scientific techniques.<em> This feature can be pest resistance, chemical resistance, improved nutrient profile etc.  </em>

When a red 4 o'clock flower with a white flower, all of the offspring are pink. This type of inheritance is known as:_______ a.
KatRina [158]

Answer:

b. incomplete dominance

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is a type of inheritance that does not confirm to Mendel's principles of inheritance i.e it is non-mendelian. Incomplete dominance occurs when an allele of a gene does not completely mask the expression of another allele of the same gene, hence, the two alleles combine to form a heterozygous that is different but intermediate of both parent phenotypes.

This is the case in this question where the red allele (R) of a four o'clock plant is INCOMPLETELY DOMINANT over the white allele (W), hence, they both produce an intermediate pink phenotype (RW), which is a blending of both red and white phenotypes.
