Biology

topjm [15]3 years ago

ANSWER: Human beings have been manipulating the genetic characteristics plants and animals since the introduction of agriculture indirect manipulation of human genes occurred with widespread use of public health and medical measures that preserve genes causing disease. The production of biologicals by DNA technology raises few ethical problems. Predictive medicine in which genetic markers (including DNA variants) are used for antenatal and preclinical diagnosis of genetic diseases and susceptibilities poses new questions of confidentiality, private versus societal goals, and self-determination. When normal DNA is used to treat the somatic cells of patients with hemoglobinopathies and other genetic diseases, no new ethical problems arise beyond those presented by an novel theory. In contrast, manipulation of DNA in human fertilized eggs would constitute a qualitative departure from previous therapies since this would affect future generations. In order to be able to make wise decisions on these matters the public must be well informed. Thus, formal and informal education in human biology and genetics must be improved at all levels.

Which process temporarily disrupts homeostasis because it increases an already high concentration of chemicals in the cell?
devlian [24]

When cells in a body are not working properly and normally, they cause disruption in the body homeostasis.

Homeostatis is characterized as balance in the body but when there is any disturbance in the body, it breaks down the balance and cause imbalance. For example in the case of diabetes in which body fails to maintain the good amount of glucose in blood which results in imbalance the body which is why diabetic patients are asked to maintain and monitor their body sugar level to maintain homeostatis.

Temperature in the tropics all year, whereas temperature at higher latitudes. Organisms that are physiologically adapted to cons
Reptile [31]

Answer:

May not

Explanation:

Adaptation is made possible as a result of an organism being exposed to different environmental conditions. These exposure makes it adopt different techniques for its survival which eventually results in it being adapted to the condition and is then passed on as traits to its offsprings. They are then able to survive when met with such environmental condition.

When an organism is exposed to the same conditions all the time then there is lack of genetic variation and adaptation may not occur.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

Vacuoles are membrane-bound sacs within the cytoplasm of a cell that function in several different ways. In mature plant cells, vacuoles tend to be very large and are extremely important in providing structural support, as well as serving functions such as storage, waste disposal, protection, and growth.
