A woman has just become pregnant. which hormone below has contributed most directly to her pregnancy

1 answer:

The answer is progesterone. This hormone is important in maintaining pregnancy. It is produced by the ovaries (corpus luteum) in the early stages of pregnancy before the placenta takes over. Progesterone ensures the walls of the uterine remain thickened hence prepare for implantation

What does the number of electrons on the outer energy level of an atom tell you

adell [148]

Well, first off it tells you the number of valence electrons (because that’s what those are valence electrons) it also tells you how that atom is going to bond with other atoms (whether it will tend to loose or gain electrons when in chemical bonds). It also can show how reactive an element is (if it has eight or in some cases two then it won’t react because that outer shell is full)...basically it tells you the chemical properties of that atom

Why would you use all the same variables in an experiment to test another variable

Because you would not want to change anything in your experiment you are just changing what you are observing

How have societal pressures such as food, energy and resource shortages driven the development of biotechnologies? I need 2 rese

WITCHER [35]

Explanation:

In biotechnology, several tools have been created to solve practical issues faced within society- one such tool is genetic engineering. Genetically modified organisms (GMs) with their DNA changed or transformed through genetic engineering methods usually GMOs include modifications in DNA through the incorporation of genes from all creatures such as plants, fungi, viruses and livestock.

These are referred to as transgenic organisms, which contribute to several innovations by increasing the nutritional value of foods and improving global food security which is the availability of food for the entire population.

GM crops are believed to be more robust in nutritional value and taste, and may be altered to boost the nutritional profile. For example, Golden Rice,a modified staple, is thought to be the solution to preventable cases of blindness caused by vitamin A deficiency. This variety has been altered to biosynthesise β-carotene, a vitamin A precursor.
Pest infestation leads to significant crop loss every year. These GM crops can increase food security. They are immune to pests and should decrease the use of herbicides and pesticides, thereby growing crop yields and making output more effective. One of the first GM tomatoes dubbed the Flavr Savr was made for longer shelf life. A gene has been introduced from a different species to slow down the tomato's ripening without altering its taste or nutritional content, as well as reducing its vulnerability to fungal infection.
