What are scientist doing to Pork to make it a GMO?
Helga [31]

Answer:

They use a gene modification technique called CRIPSR-CAS9. The pigs have been given a gene that allows them to better regulate their own body temperature, whereby they burn fat, or at which animals consume their own fat.

Explanation:

British and Chinese scientists explained that they conducted the study by adding a mouse version of the UCP1 gene used for porcine embryos, which is used to regulate body temperature characteristic of most mammals, but not ordinary pigs.

It is problematic for pigs to maintain a stable body temperature, and this is especially complicated in pigs that are cold in the winter months because they have not been able to "store" fat.

Inserting the UCP2 gene could solve this problem.

<h2>Events in Development of Plants</h2>

Explanation:

The events in the development of plants is as follows:

1. Cyanobacteria begin to photosynthesize.

Cyanobacteria which are commonly called as Blue green algae are Prokaryotes.

They are aquatic and photosynthetic, it means, they live in the water, and can manufacture their own food.

2. Cyanobacteria become the chloroplast of plants.

Cyanobacteria have the endosymbiotic plastid. Eukaryotes or plants considered to have evolved from endosymbiotic cyanobacteria.

3. Bryophytes become the first land plants.

Bryophytes are the first land plants to be evolved from aquatic plants, specifically green algae.

4. Plants evolve to have vascular tissue to transport water.

During the evolution of plants from Bryophytes to Pteridophytes, Pteridophytic  plants have vascular tissue i.e. xylem and phloem. Xylem helps in transport of water to various parts of the plants.
