Answer:

The first, which was published in 2014 and included the review of 147 studies, concluded that GM crops have allowed an average increase in agricultural yield by 22 percent and increased farmers' profits by 68 percent, with profit margins even larger in developing countries.Explanation:

If Plants no longer existed on earth then there would be no way for carbon dioxide to be converted into oxygen, without oxygen animals and humans alike would die. The Worlds "Air" would be toxic for us to breathe, we need plants to survive. Without plants, animals would die of starvation, and predators would as well without substance.

What do you call the end of a straw wrapper that a waiter leaves on your straw when serving your drink?
daser333 [38]

The waiter tears the raised part of the straw wrapper a few inches from either end and he pulls until a piece of the wrapper is entirely removed. The exposed part of the straw is what is then placed in the drink, leaving the remaining wrapper for the customer to remove himself. This will assure the customer that the waiter has not touched the straw with bare hands. The part of the straw that has remained is called a straw lace, or a drinking straw sleeve or a strawphylactic.

Is it possible to have a knockout mutant plant that shows no visible phenotype that is different from the wild-type plant?
joja [24]

Answer:

Molecular genetic approaches to the study of plant metabolism can be traced back to the isolation of the first cDNA encoding a plant enzyme (Bedbrook et al., 1980), the use of the Agrobacterium Ti plasmid to introduce foreign DNA into plant cells (Hernalsteens et al., 1980) and the establishment of routine plant transformation systems (Bevan, 1984; Horsch et al., 1985). It became possible to express foreign genes in plants and potentially to overexpress plant genes using cDNAs linked to strong promoters, with the aim of modifying metabolism. However, the discovery of the antisense phenomenon of plant gene silencing (van der Krol et al., 1988; Smith et al., 1988), and subsequently co‐suppression (Napoli et al., 1990; van der Krol et al., 1990), provided the most powerful and widely‐used methods for investigating the roles of specific enzymes in metabolism and plant growth. The antisense or co‐supression of gene expression, collectively known as post‐transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS), has been particularly versatile and powerful in studies of plant metabolism. With such molecular tools in place, plant metabolism became accessible to investigation and manipulation through genetic modification and dramatic progress was made in subsequent years (Stitt and Sonnewald, 1995; Herbers and Sonnewald, 1996), particularly in studies of solanaceous species (Frommer and Sonnewald, 1995).

Mary bought three flowering plants for her garden. The first one has red tubular flowers filled with nectar; the second one has
uranmaximum [27]
I would say that the first flower attracts birds etc. t go and drink it's nectar (also I know that humming birds are attracted to red), and thus spread it's pollen. The second flower most likely attracts bees seeing how t is also sweetly scented, but has no nectar. This must mean that it only has pollen, which bees are great at spreading! I have no clue about the last one....Maybe bugs or bats?? Those are the only other pollinators I know of. It could possibly be that there is no pollinator for the third flower and it just tries to keep animals and insects from eating it with it's shape and odor and just relays on the wind for pollination.<span />
