Answer:
b.burning of fossil fuels
Explanation:
Burning fossil fuels has been considered controversial since it produces tons and tons of CO2 and CO2 is considered a green house gas which is contributing to climate change.
Photosynthesis and planting trees actually sucks Carbon dioxide out of environment. Perspiration doesn't produce CO2.
Metastasis will happen and cancer cells invade nearby healthy cells, tissues, lymph nodes, organs or will migrate to distant organs.
The two different types of stem cells broadly classified as are Embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells are obtained from the blastocyst layer of the embryo and are pleuripotent. Whereas adult stem cells are the undifferentiated cells from tissues of an adult or a child. They can be unipotent or multipotent.
Explanation:
Cancer cells migrate to other parts of the body via blood and lymphatic system. This is called as metastasis. Cancer cells when becomes tumour they develop their own blood vessels and obtain nutrients from them. Once the tumour gets big it pushes the normal healthy cells of the neighbouring tissues and keeps on spreading.
Stem cells obtained from the embryo can differentiate into any types of cell and when grown in-vitro can dramatically form the three germ layers.
The adult embryo cells are found in less quantity, their role is to repair the tissue they reside in.
Answer:
1. the DNA of which has been modified using genetic engineering methods. In most cases, the aim is to introduce a new trait to the plant which does not occur naturally in the species.
2. GM crops are made through a process known as genetic engineering. Genes of commercial interest are transferred from one organism to another. Two primary methods currently exist for introducing transgenes into plant genomes. The first involves a device called a 'gene gun'.
3. Crops do not damage the environment simply because they are GM. Some farming practices, such as the overuse of herbicides resulting in the excessive eradication of wild plants from farmland have been shown to harm the environment. These problems are similar for non-GM and GM crops.
Answer:
Explanation:
Species: a group of living organisms consisting of similar individuals capable of exchanging genes or interbreeding.
Population: a particular group or type of people or animals living in a place.
Gene pool: the stock of different genes in an interbreeding population.
Mutations: 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.
Lateral Gene Transfer: the movement of genetic material between unicellular and/or multicellular organisms other than by the transmission of DNA from parent to offspring (reproduction).
Single-gene Traits: when a trait is linked to one gene-pair that consists of two alleles.
Polygenic Traits: is one whose phenotype is influenced by more than one gene.
