<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Gene therapy to correct defective genes that cause diseases.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Gene therapy refers to the procedure that involves the introduction of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) into the cells of an organism for the purpose of correcting abnormalities, such as a mutations or in other words to treat a genetic disease.
- Gene therapy entails bringing a normal and functional gene known as a trans-gene into a cell with altered gene. Another method can bring RNA capable of partially regulating or blocking the expression of an altered gene.
- The nucleic acids are introduced into the patient's cells by means of a viral vector or injected directly into the cells in the form of naked DNA.
Answer:
Dermal tissue covers and protects the plant, and controls gas exchange and water absorption (in roots). Dermal tissue of the stems and leaves is covered by a waxy cuticle that prevents evaporative water loss.
Water currents keep you from going deeper, its important because the deeper you go the heavier you get and deadlier fish are wating to kill any thing. There is barly any food down there.
When there is heavy competition between two species these results may surface. First, even if there is just a little advantage of one species, the tendency is the best competitors will dominate the other. This may lead to the extinction of the weaker species. Another result is, competition may cause the traits of the competing species to evolve. This result is called character displacement. This is what happens when for instance the species live in the same area and have the same and common niche; the characteristics of the species evolve in order for them to minimize niche overlap. This is also for them not to have competitive exclusion. To add to that, when there is heavy competition, the finite resources will not be enough for all competitors who have all access to the resources. This may lead to very low survival rates.
