Read the passage. Then explain the ways humans have influenced the traits in corn plants and the impacts each biotechnology has

had
Many of the types of corn found in grocery stores were originally bred for their taste and productivity. But these varieties are often threatened by pests. This makes it harder for farmers to produce enough corn.

Scientists have used genetic engineering to make GMO corn plants that are resistant to pests. In one type of GMO plant, they added genes from bacteria that live in soil. The genes let the GMO plants produce a bacterial protein that kills certain insects.

"the medulla, the pons, and the cerebellum are three main parts of the ______."
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The medulla, pons, and the cerebellum are three main parts of the hindbrain.

Brain is the centre of the nervous system. It is enclosed in the skull cranium. The primary regions of the brain are the forebrain, midbrain and the hindbrain. The forebrain consists of the cerebrum and diencephalon. The midbrain is a small tubular region between the forebrain and the hindbrain. The hindbrain is made up of the medulla oblongata, pons and cerebellum.

Cerebellum is the second largest portion of the brain which helps in maintaining the body's equillibrium, coordinates muscular movements and body posture. Pons is the structure located in the brain stem which relays impulses from medulla to cerebellum and vice versa. Medulla oblongata is the lowest part of the brain stem controlling involuntary reflexes and has the respiratory and cardiac centres in it controlling respiration and heart beats respectively.

write an essay about the best meal you’ve ever eaten using all five senses (smell, taste, hearing, touch, sight)
san4es73 [151]

I was sitting in my room, my eyes glued to the flashing screen, the palm of my hands slick with sweat as I struggled to hold onto the controller, the smooth surface slipping every second or so. I could barely hear anything, but the blaring of the sound effects that blasted through my room, shutting out any sound, including the knock on my door from my mother. I started, dropping the controller, my eyes wide. I snapped "What!" at my mother, her face contorting into pinched irritation. "Dinner is ready." She said, turning away to head back down the stairs. My eyes shifted to the open doorway, the nostrils of my nose flaring as I took in the scent of food. I could smell spices, and the humid stench of steam. My stomach growled and I quickly shot up from the floor and thundered down the stairs, leaping into the kitchen to find the source of the heavenly smells that wafted in my direction. I spotted turkey, garnished with lemon and green herbs, and sitting beside it, a large bowl of something off-white. It looked like mashed potatoes. I hastily took a seat and set my elbows upon the wooden surface of the table, my mother scolding me over her shoulder as she divided place settings. "Elbows off, please." She piped, pulling out her own chair with an ear splintering squeal that grated my nerves, causing my teeth to grind together. My mother passed a plate of green beans towards me, and I quickly scooped them onto my own plate, then going for the turkey, the mashed potatoes added last. With no time for prayer, I dug in, the tinges of my fork scraping against the plates clay surface as I scooped a fork full of beans up, and shoved it into my mouth. It tasted bland, with the barest hint of salt. I swallowed, cringing as it went down and took a bite of the mashed potatoes. Of course it was delicious. They were light, buttered perfectly. I gave a small sound of appreciation and went for the turkey last. I stabbed a piece of meat and popped it into my mouth, the texture odd. Hard to describe really. It was tough, but also soft enough to bite into, and with lemon added into it, it was tangy, making my mouth salivate. My mom smiled at the expression my face, nearly laughing. I made a face at her and swallowed, going in for another bite.

An enhancer may increase the frequency of transcription initiation for its associated gene when… (indicate true or false for eac
Olenka [21]

Answer:

it is located 1000 nucleotides upstream of the gene’s core promoter - true

it is located 1000 nucleotides downstream of the gene’s core promoter- true

it is in the gene’s coding region - False

Explanation:

These enhancers are located 50 or more kilobases from the promoter they controlled upstream from a promoter, downstream from a promoter within an intron, or even downstream from the <u>final exon</u> of a gene which can be thousands of bp away from the gene's core promoter and can also occur thousands of nucleotides away from the gene's core promoter needing the activity of a DNA -bending protein that binds to the enhancer changing the shape of the DNA and allow interactions between the activators and transcription factors.
