Answer:

Not necessarily pivotal, but it would be just dumb not use every opportunity to

increase food security, food safety and healthiness, yield efficiency, ressource efficiency, farmers' safety and last but not least reduce carbon emissions.

I don't think that when they invented the Haber-Bosch process they debated about wether it was 'pivotal' in order to feed the world's population - although in hindsight, it absolutely was!

They just used it because everyone profited from it.

Today, we're in the same situation with biotechnology.

Answer:

Yes. We have only a limited amount of land and space, and every plant is adapted to its own environment. Through gene manipulation, we could perhaps create plants that can grow in a wide variety of environments, grow taller or wider, or be more resistant to diseases

What is refusal of care and how does it affect the doctor and the patient?
rodikova [14]
When a doctor refuses to care for a certain patient. This can be for numerous reasons, maybe they are not fit to undergo a surgery of some sort, or are being problematic. Either or the doctor nor the patient benefit form this. Doctor misses out on someone to help (i assume that’s the attitude of one working for the greater good) and the patient misses the opportunity to possibly get the help they need.

I have a very important question today. NEED ANSWERS QUICK... FAMILY MEMBER NEEDS THIS ANSWER.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

A very small number of bone cancers (especially osteosarcomas) appear to be hereditary and are caused by defects (mutations) in certain genes. Retinoblastoma is a rare eye cancer in children that can be hereditary. The inherited form of retinoblastoma is caused by a mutation (abnormal copy) of the RB1 gene. Those with this mutation also have an increased risk of developing bone or soft tissue sarcomas. Also, if radiation therapy is used to treat the retinoblastoma, the risk of osteosarcoma in the bones around the eye is even higher. Finally, there are families with several members who have developed osteosarcoma without inherited changes in any of the known genes. The gene defects that may cause cancers in these families haven’t been discovered yet.

They will most likely survive becuase stage one of bone cancer is the most treatable stage.
