1. What is the biggest potential benefit that we can see from genetic engineering? Why?

1 answer:

7 0

1. The biggest possible benefit would be organ transplants. Through genetic engineering we can create organs for people who need transplants without waiting for donations, which would help to save lives.

2. The biggest potential problem is the moral construct of whether genetic engineering is right. Genetic engineering will face many issues in laws and as it advances to actually creating other life forms, will come into question whether it is morally just to create life and if that life has rights.

The rate at which the concentration of a drug in the bloodstream decreases is proportional to the concentration at any time t. I

Westkost [7]

Answer:

$C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}$

Explanation:

From the given information:

At any given time (t), let c(t) represent the concentration of the drug present in bloodstream.

Deriving the equation:

$\dfrac{dC}{dt}$ decrease proportionally to Concentration C

i.e

$\dfrac{dc}{dt} \alpha - C$

$\dfrac{dc}{dt} = -k C$

$\dfrac{dc}{c} = -k dt$

$\int \dfrac{dc}{c} = -k \int dt$

㏑(C) = -kt + λ

where,

λ is the integration constant.

Integrating at t = 0, concentration of blood = Co g/mL

C(0) = Co

㏑(C₀) = 0 + λ

λ = ㏑(C₀)

From ㏑(C) = -kt + λ

㏑(C) = -kt + ㏑C₀

㏑(C) - ㏑C₀ = -kt

$\dfrac{C}{C_o} = e^{-kt}$

$C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}$

∴

The concentration of drug in blood at any time t is:

$C(t) = C_oe^{-kt}$

Answer:

Producers

Consumers

Decomoposers

Detritivores

Explanation:

Nitrogen is very important element to all living organisms. Producers which comprises of plants have nitrogen fixing bacteria which helps in its growth.

Consumers, Decomposers and Dentrivores need nitrogen for their growth, through the building up of protein and also for DNA metabolism which helps in reproduction.
