Scientists have been genetically modifying food crops since the mid 1990's. As a result, scientists have been able to produce cr

ops that are more disease resistant. What could be seen as a risk associated with using genetically modified crops? A) reduction in nutritional value of the food crop B) plants can be "tailor made" for the desired trait C) crops may cause an increase of allergic reactions in humans D) crop production would be increased due to greater disease resistance

Answer:

The correct answer would be C) crops may cause an increase of allergic reactions in humans.

Transgenic crops are the crops in which the genome is modified through genetic engineering techniques. It usually involves the introduction of a gene from different species which provide desired traits such as disease resistance, high nutrition value et cetera.

Due to genetic modification, the crops may act cause disease or allergic reactions in humans.  

Our body may produce immunogenic or allergic reaction towards the genetically modified crops.

Create an explicit equation for each recursively-defined sequence below.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

  t(n) = 3·5^(n-1)

Explanation:

The recursive formula describes a sequence in which each term is 5 times the one before it. This is a geometric sequence with common ratio 5 and a first term that is said to be 3.

As you know, the generic formula for a geometric sequence is ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

For a1 = 3, r = 5, and a sequence named "t", this is ...

  t(n) = 3·5^(n-1)
