Answer: c

Explanation: if there is no plate movement that means that there is a balanced force there is nothing that is disrupting it. but if there's an earthquake in that means that there are unbalanced forces in that they cause an earthquake. a force is balanced if the two individual forces are of equal magnitude and of the opposite direction. And an object is said to be acted upon by an unbalanced force when there is an individual force that is not being balanced by a force of equal magnitude and in the opposite direction.

Over 1,800 mutations have been described within the CFTR gene. These mutations can be readily detected using PCR and DNA sequenc
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C.

Explanation:

CFTR is a short form of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein which is caused by a recessive mutation in this protein. This mutation results in the accumulation of mucus in secretory organs.

As the disease is a recessive disease, for the mutant phenotype to expressed both copies of the allele required to be recessive.

The mother is negative for the CFTR. Hence, she will not transfer the mutant allele to her child So, the child would have a wild-type phenotype even if the father having two copies of recessive allele.

Thus, the correct answer is - option C.

What are the pros and cons of CRISPR-cas9
professor190 [17]

Answer:

It has incomparable advantages over other gene editing tools.

Explanation:

For example, the CRISPR-Cas9 system has more target sites than ZFNs and TALENs, and Cas9 has many variants that can be used in a variety of studies. Moreover, the system is extremely easy to use and can be executed in almost any laboratory.

The most important advantages of CRISPR/Cas9 over other genome editing technologies is its simplicity and efficiency. Since it can be applied directly in embryo, CRISPR/Cas9 reduces the time required to modify target genes compared to gene targeting technologies based on the use of embryonic stem (ES) cells.

Disadvantages of CRISPR technology: CRISPR-Cas9 off-target; The effect of off-target can alter the function of a gene and may result in genomic instability, hindering it prospective and application in clinical procedure.

this the best i got, hope it helps :)
