Biology

S_A_V [24]3 years ago
4 0
  <span>  The  first designer baby was created in the U.S. in 2000. Doctors used screening techniques to test the embryos of Lisa and Jack Nash. They chose the embryos that would be an exact cell match to their daughter Molly. Molly suffers from a genetic disorder called Fanconi Anemia which causes bone marrow deficiency. The embryo selected did not carry the disease and was a perfect tissue match. <span>As a result, Adam Nash was born in August after Mrs. Nash underwent four IVF cycles. Stem cells were collected from his umbilical cord to be donated and used to replace Molly's bone marrow. (Baby created to save older sister)Since the creation of Adam, many more couples have created their own designer baby to save their sick child or prevent their offspring from inheriting a certain genetic disease. </span></span>

worty [1.4K]

<span>C dinoflagellates

</span><span><span>A flagella (or flagellum plural) is a long strand like structure that is located in the front end part (more like a tail in front). It flips to the left and right in order for the organism to move. It is connected to the reservoir, which contains the storage of food for the organism.<span>

</span></span>These unicellular organisms are responsible for breaking down materials in the earth. They assist with the decomposition of the dead and decaying matter that can be found on the earth's surface. This break down also makes up natural fertiliser for the plants which then grow up fertilised. These unicellular organisms are also an essential part of the nitrogen cycle. They change the nitrogen from the environment and turn them into absorbable nitrates for the plants, which is an essential part of the plants' food.

Which biotic and abiotic factors are different between a lion and a deer?
nevsk [136]
They are both biotic factors because they affect living organisms. The abiotic factor a lion and deer needs is water because they need to stay hydrated but water is not living . Deers eat plants, plants are known as biotic factors too. And lions eat their prey which are living animals and once they are preyed upon they are still considered biotic because they were once living before getting consumed by the lion.
