Answer:

Genes of one species can be modified, or genes can be transplanted from one species to another. Genetic engineering is made possible by recombinant DNA technology. Organisms that have altered genomes are known as transgenic. Most transgenic organisms are generated in the laboratory for research purposes.

A genetically modified organism (GMO) is any organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. The exact definition of a genetically modified organism and what constitutes genetic engineering varies, with the most common being an organism altered in a way that "does not occur naturally by mating and/or natural recombination". A wide variety of organisms have been genetically modified (GM), from animals to plants and microorganisms. Genes have been transferred within the same species, across species (creating transgenic organisms) and even across kingdoms. New genes can be introduced, or endogenous genes can be enhanced, altered or knocked out.

Which of these factors affects how fast a sound wave moves? the kind of material it is moving through the kind of material it is

nalin [4]

Answer:

the kind of material it is moving through

Explanation:

Sound wave is a type of mechanical wave, which requires a medium to travel, unlike longitudinal waves that can travel through vacuums. Since, sound waves travel through mediums, the KIND OF MEDIUM/MATERIAL it is traveling through has a role to play on how fast it moves.

Sound waves move faster in materials whose molecules are closely packed together than those with loosely packed molecules. This is why sound waves naturally travel faster in SOLID materials. Therefore, the the kind of material the sound wave is moving through affects how fast it moves.
