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.

What type of polymer is made by bonding an alkene to one or more alkanes or alkenes? A. di-polymers B. multi-polymers C. additio
olganol [36]
Hello! 

The type of polymer that is made by bonding an alkene to one or more alkanes or alkenes is called addition polymer

Addition polymers are those whose polymerization reaction doesn't produce low molecular mass compounds but the bonding of molecules one after the other. Such a reaction implies that there is a rupture in the bonding between monomers (the building blocks of the polymer) to allow the formation of a chain. 

Bonding an alkene to one or more alkanes or alkenes is an example of an addition polymerization.

How is RNA different from DNA
xz_007 [3.2K]

DNA and RNA have completely different purposes in us. DNA stores and transfers genetic information (Eye and hair colour, skin colour, etc..). RNA codes amino acids and makes proteins. DNA is double stranded while RNA is single stranded. DNA uses adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine; while RNA uses adenine, cytosine, uracil, and guanine.

The collapse of fisheries is most noticeable among the smaller fish that are consumed by larger predatory fish, such as sharks a
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The correct answer is: False.

Explanation:

  • A Fishery collapse can be defined as the condition in which the composition of different species of fishes forming a food chain or a food web and located in a marine or aquatic community undergoes a drastic alteration.
  • The alternation can be caused due to environmental or anthropological factors.
  • A fishery collapse usually affects the larger fish population like sharks and tuna as their commercial and economic demand is higher.
  • Excessive fishing cause the population of the large fishes to decline without affecting the small fish population.
  • This is because the small fishes do not have high economic or commercial demand, hence they have very less probability of being angled or captured.
