1. AquAdvantage Salmon is a genetically engineered species of salmon first approved for human consumption by the FDA in 2015. To

create AquAdvantage Salmon, exogenous genes (i.e., transgenes) were introduced into Atlantic salmon from the genomes of Pacific Chinook salmon and ocean pout (an eelpout with naturally-occurring antifreeze proteins in its blood!) in a process known as __________________ g

Answer:

Gene Transfer

Explanation:

Gene Transfer is a form of Genetic Modification aimed at creating new qualities that do not naturally exist in a species. In the question above this was done by introducing the genetic makeup of the Pacific Chinook salmon and the ocean pout into the genome of the Atlantic Salmon.

AquaAdvantage salmons have been engineered to grow faster than Atlantic Salmon. They achieve an average size of 4.5Kg in 16 to 20 months compared to an average time of 30 months for naturally occurring Atlantic Salmon to reach the same size.

What is the importance of weathering for the formation of sedimentary rocks?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Erosion and weathering include the effects of wind and rain, which slowly break down large rocks into smaller ones. Erosion and weathering transform boulders and even mountains into sediments, such as sand or mud. These three processes create the raw materials for new, sedimentary rocks.Weathering – Breaks pre-existing rock into small fragments or new minerals. Transportation of the sediments to a sedimentary basin.
