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.

Answer:

C. mRNA

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we may remember that when DNA is undergoing transcription a specific sequence is copied via the RNA polymerase in order to produce the messenger RNA which is subsequently used as the starting material of translation for the protein synthesis as shown on the attached picture. Thereby, answer is C. mRNA, since the transcription process produces it and then, for the translation process, it contains the codons which promote the formation of polypeptides (proteins) via the connection of the anti-codons contained in the tRNA which also provide the amino acids for the polypeptides formation.

Regards.
