What are some possible consequences if transgenic salmon escape from their pens into the ocean population?

Biology
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

If the transgenic salmon escapes from their pens into the ocean population there are chances that they would compete with the wild salmons for food and space. They may also bring new diseases and changes to the food webs and ecosystem of the ocean.

Explanation:

A transgenic organism or genetically modified organism is the one that undergoes alternation through recombinant DNA technology.

No, I do not think that FDA should approve Aquabounty of growing and selling transgenic salmon since there is higher chance that they may interfere and disturb with the ecosystem and might also bring new diseases.

alexira [117]
The correct answer is "urine output, 20 ml/hour".
The minimum urine output for a healthy individual is 30 ml/hour, therefore this measurement of urine output is lower than what is considered acceptable. Urine output is an important assessment which can help the monitoring of renal function. Since the patient is recovering from a renal surgery, a significant low urine output should be reported to the healthcare provider.
In a patient recovering from a surgery, a slight increase in temperature is expected. So is the absence of bowel sounds and a small amount of serous sanguineous drainage.

Choose the correct sequence of the prokaryotic operon. A) gene, operator, promoter B) promoter, operator, gene C) operator, prom
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, that is, promoter, operator, gene.

Explanation:

In a prokaryote, just in front of the operator, the promoter is located, and just in front of the structural genes, the operator is located. All these in combination give rise to an operon.  

Any gene, which codes for an enzyme or a structural protein is termed as a structural gene, in the lac operon, a structural gene codes for three distinct kinds of enzymes. A short sequence of DNA is situated just in front of the structural gene, which is known as the operator. An operator functions as a switch for transcription, that is, it monitors whether the process of transcription will take place or not.  

Just in front of an operator, a sequence of a promoter is present, and for the transcription and translation of all the structural genes, the RNA polymerase needs to combine first with the promoter. In case, if no transcription is to take place, then the operator allows the repressor to bind with it and prevent the attachment of RNA polymerase with the promoter. Hence, the correct sequence of a prokaryotic operon is a promoter, operator, and gene.

If immigration and emigration numbers remain equal, which of these could cause a slowed growth rate?
aev [14]

Answer: C

Explanation:

If immigration and emigration numbers remain equal, decreased birthrate could cause a slowed growth rate .

Decreased birthrate always affects the numbers in terms of population.The less births there are, the smaller the number of people. Even if the death rate remains constant a decreased birthrate will slow growth of population.
