Answer and Explanation:

The manipulation of the gene is called genetic engineering. In genetic engineering, fragments of genes are cloned by leading the genes into the host cell. The advantage of using a prokaryotic host system in genetic engineering is that bacterial cells are used to produce commercially significant products. For example, human growth hormone helps to treat dwarfism, and human insulin production, which is used to treat diabetes. The bacterium P.putida is created by genetic engineering, which is used to break down petroleum products. Genetic engineering also carries some potential risks, such as transferring the selected gene into another speice, benefit one species can harm another speice. Therefore genetic engineering must be used in limit in prokaryotes. These limitations are also addressable in single-cell eukaryotic systems. Biologics-based therapeutic medicines such as a vaccine, gene therapies, and cell therapies known as bioproduction are produced. Medicines are so complex that they can only be formed in a living system. Biopharmaceuticals, value-added food, fuels, chemicals, antibiotics, and many other products are produced by bioproduction.

Nuclear energy use can negatively impact water quality. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
MAXImum [283]

The statement is - True.

The production of the nuclear energy by the nuclear reactors requires lot of water. The water's role is to constantly keep cool the reactors because if they overheat there can be a disaster of big proportions.

Because of the heating up of the water the water changes its properties slightly. Those changes have big environmental impact, easily seen in the local flora and fauna in close proximity to the nuclear reactors. There is way to big of a percentage of bad mutations among the flora and fauna where the water is released from the nuclear reactors, where very often there's animals with either more or less extremities, two heads, weird growth and shape of the plants etc.
