The correct answer is A. Saguaro Cacti, with the scientific name <span>Carnegiea gigantea, </span>which is very significant biotic feature to the Sonoran Dessert's ecosystem. The craziest fact about it is that it can grow up to 40 feet tall! The Sonoran Desert is a North American dessert, also. Some other critical biotic features of this desert include joshua trees, rattle snake, and red-tailed hawk. 

Let me know if you need further info. :)

Explain the difference between selective breeding and genetic engineering in the development of food crops with desirable traits
Brums [2.3K]

Selective breeding is the traditional method for improving crops and livestock, such as increasing disease resistance or milk yield.

Genetic engineering is a faster way, which transplants genes for a desired characteristic into an organism. However, genetic engineering offers many potential benefits but carries the risk of unexpected harmful effects.

A newborn baby dies soon after birth because her diaphragm and rib cage muscles failed to contract and she was unable to breathe
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Troponin

Explanation:

This is a complex of three proteins  (Trop C, I, T) that are responsible for muscle contraction of  the skeletal and cardiac  muscles . its binds with protein tropomysin  to lie in the grove between the actin filaments.  its prevents contraction by blocking  myosin crossbridge  in a relax muscles.Inorder to aid contractions  calcium ions binds with troponin, which leads to confrontational change.This exposes myosin on actin filaments,  leading to formation of crossbridge and therefore contraction of muscles.

Therefore if there is  a mutation in the gene that encoded Troponin, as explained above, calcium ion  will not be able to bind with tropinin, and there will be no exposure of myosin on actin filaments, no binding of  myosin on actin to cause crossbridge, and consequently no  muscle contraction,

Thus the intercoastal  muscle and diaphragm will not contract leading to death of the baby.
