Answer:

The correct option is: e. Germline gene therapy

Explanation:

The germline gene therapy, GGT is the modification of the germ cells. In this therapy, a functional gene is introduced into the genomes of the gametes. Such a modification of the germ cell results in all the cells of the organisms to get modified. This change can therefore be passed on to the next generations. Many countries such as Canada, Germany and Switzerland, have prohibited the use of the germline gene therapy on humans.

Which technology is used to adjust the load connected to solar cells and increase their energy output?

shutvik [7]

Answer:

C. Maximum power point tracking.

Explanation:

A. Direct current: It is also called DC in which electric current flows consistently in one direction.It is used in batteries and cells.It is not used in solar system .Therefore, it is false.

B. Alternating current : It is also called AC . The AC is used in domestic electricity.The current in which direction of electron is reversed after at regular intervals .It is not used for solar cells.Hence, it is false.

C. Maximum power point tracking:It is also called power point tracking. It is used in charge control in solar cells.it is a technique which is used to extracting maximum available power from PV ( photovoltaic cells) solar system.It is a technique that is used to adjust load connected to solar cells and increase their energy output.Therefore, it is true.

D. Electromagnetic induction:It is a process for producing EMF due to change in magnetic field. It is not used in solar system. Therefore, it is false.

Answer:C. Maximum power point tracking.

Photosynthesis occurs in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.How do the location where photosynthesis occurs differ in prokaryotes a

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

In eukaryotes, it occurs in the chloroplast. In prokaryotes it does it in the cytoplasm.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes don't have organelles such as the mitochondria and the chloroplast, it just has cell membrane, which its only function is to protect the cell and is unable to generate chemical processes; the DNA, which stores and manages only the genes, which would be affected if exposed to a chemical process like photosynthesis; and the cytoplasm, which stores the materials that the cell needs, where photosynthesis occurs. Eukaryotes have chloroplasts, which absorb the sunlight and combine it with carbon dioxide and water to realize photosynthesis.
