Allergic reactions. Some people believe that GMO foods have more potential to trigger allergic reactions.

Cancer. Most researchers believe that eating GMO foods can contribute to the development of cancer

Antibacterial resistance. Can cause health complications

Outcrossing: Eating a genetically modified food can actually genetically modify YOU! It's scary but it's TRUE!

I don't know if this helps or not but you would want to know the age of the rock (absolute dating) and from there you will be able to know the age of the fossil and what caused it to die.

Briefly describe how amniocentesis and chorionic villi sampling are used in genetic screening.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Amniocentesis is an invasive method that involves the aspiration of 10-20 ml of fetal water through the abdominal wall under ultrasound-guided control. In most cases, the procedure is performed around the 16th week of gestation. The fetal water sample contains fetal cells, mostly cells of fetal skin and the epithelium of the urinary tract.

Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) biopsy is performed between weeks 11 and 12 of gestation. During biopsy, with ultrasound guidance, the tissue of the chorionic fossa is aspirated mainly across the abdomen (transabdominal pathway). The biopsy specimen is of fetal origin and belongs to the outer layer of blastocyst cells or the trophoblast (outer layer of the placenta). Very often, the biopsy specimen contains tissue of the decidua (mucous membrane of the uterus) that is of maternal origin, and it is necessary to remove the maternal tissue before any treatment of the sample.

Explanation:

The amniocentesis procedure carries a risk of miscarriage of 0.5-1%.  After aspiration of the fruit of the water, the sample is centrifuged to separate the cells from the amniotic fluid. Separate cells are seeded on a nutrient medium (cell culture) that stimulates cell growth. After about 14 days, the cell culture is further used for various genetic or biochemical analyzes such as karyotyping.

The advantage of chorionic biopsy is the amount of biological material, which is sufficient for the whole a number of different laboratory procedures. Also, a great advantage is the timing of the procedure as it allows diagnosis in the first trimester of pregnancy, but the chorionic biopsy procedure itself carries a risk of miscarriage of 1-2%.

In the ocean how does water temperature change as depth increases
tatuchka [14]
When the upper water layers warm in the summer months, they become separated from deep water by a transition zone known as a thermocline. In a thermocline, the temperature decreases rapidly with small increases in depth. This phenomenon linking temperature change with depth is called temperature stratification.

a hypertonic salt solution has a higher concentration of solutes than a blood cell. explain what happens when a blood cell is pl
dem82 [27]

Answer: When a blood cells is place in Hypertonic solution, water will rush out of the cell, the cell will shrinks or crenates. This is because the solute concentration outside the cell is greater than solute concentration inside the cell.

Explanation:

Hypertonic solution is a solution that have greater or higher solute concentration outside the cell compare to the solute concentration inside the cell.
