ki77a [65]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Genetic engineering is the process of using recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology to alter the genetic makeup of an organism.

Disadvantages

The nutritional value of foods can be less. .

Pathogens adapt to the new genetic profiles

There can be negative side effects that are unexpected

The amount of diversity developed can be less favorable

Copyrighted genetic engineering can have costly consequences.

Advantages

More nutritious food.

Tastier food.

Disease- and drought-resistant plants that require fewer environmental resources (such as water and fertilizer)

Less use of pesticides.

Increased supply of food with reduced cost and longer shelf life.

Faster growing plants and animals.

The answer is <span>Without genetic diversity, natural selection cannot occur.

</span>In natural selection, genotype variations that will increase the chance of survival and reproduction of some organism are preserved and will be inherited. In order for natural selection to occur, the genetic diversity must be present within the population. That way, natural selection will have more "choices" so it can favor those variations t<span>hat will increase the chance of survival and reproduction.</span>

What happens to the density of the heated mantle Rock? And why?
Mrac [35]

It reduces

Explanation:

The density of the heated mantle rock reduces because its volume has increased.

  • Frictional heat, heat from radioactive decay and heat that accretted originally when the earth was forming are responsible for heating the mantle.
  • When a substance is heated, it expands and its volume increases.
  • Density is a function of mass and volume.
  • The higher the volume, the lower the density.
  • The higher the mass, the higher the density.
  • When the mantle is heated, its volume increases to a new one and its density reduces.

Deep beaks have benefits, but they also have disadvantages. finches with deep beaks require more food and are less likely to sur
Art [367]

The correct answer is that the beaks would increase - this is the adaptation of finches to the new conditions (drought).

Beak depth varies according to drought conditions. Since after the drought vegetation dries out and the hard, big, tough seeds remain, only the finches with deep beaks will survive. Finches adapt via their beaks to different foods sources and different local conditions.
