Biodiversity Loss: The use of some GM crops can have negative impacts on non-target organisms and on soil and water ecosystems. For example, the expansion of GM herbicide-tolerant corn and soy, which are twinned with herbicides, has destroyed much of the habitat of the monarch butterfly in North America.

One specific concern is the possibility for GMOs to negatively affect human health. This could result from differences in nutritional content, allergic response, or undesired side effects such as toxicity, organ damage, or gene transfer. Research indicates that GM crop technology can result in a net increase in herbicide use and can foster the growth of herbicide resistant weeds. In addition, there is concern that the use of GM crops may negatively impact the agriculture ecosystem.

When more than one wave is in the same location at the same time, then there is _____ between the waves?
igor_vitrenko [27]
The sentence can be completed as follows:
"<span>When more than one wave is in the same location at the same time, then there is interference between the waves"

In fact, when there are two or more waves in the same location at the same time, their amplitude sum together. The two extreme possibilities are:
- costructive interference: the two waves arrive on phase at the same location (=their crests arrive at the same location at the same time). In this case, the amplitudes of the waves sum together and the resultant wave has greater amplitude.
- destructive interference: the two waves arrive out of phase at the same location. In this case, the amplitudes of the two waves cancel out, and the resultant wave has amplitude zero.</span>

Naturally occurring element X exists in three isotopic forms: X-28 (27.977 amu, 92.23% abundance), X-29 (28.976 amu, 4.67% abund
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

C. 28.09 amu

Explanation:

The natural occurring element exist in 3 isotopic forms: namely X-28 (27.977 amu, 92.23% abundance),  X-29 (28.976 amu, 4.67% abundance) and  X-30 (29.974 amu, 3.10% abundance).

The atomic weight of elements depends on the isotopic abundance. If you know the fractional abundance and the mass of the isotopes the atomic weight can be computed.

The atomic weight is computed as follows:

atomic weight = mass of X-28 × fractional abundance + mass of X-29 × fractional abundance + mass of  X-30 × fractional abundance

atomic weight = 27.977 × 0.9223 + 28.976 × 0.0467 + 29.974 ×  0.0310

atomic weight = 25.8031871 + 1.3531792 + 0.929194

atomic weight = 28.0855603 amu

To 2 decimal place atomic weight = 28.09 amu

The electric field in a region of space increases from 0 to 2150 N/C in 5.00 s. What is the magnitude of the induced magnetic fi
Feliz [49]

To solve this problem we will use the Ampere-Maxwell law, which   describes the magnetic fields that result from a transmitter wire or loop in electromagnetic surveys. According to Ampere-Maxwell law:

\oint \vec{B}\vec{dl} = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d\Phi_E}{dt}

Where,

B= Magnetic Field

l = length

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability

\epsilon_0 = Vacuum permittivity

Since the change in length (dl) by which the magnetic field moves is equivalent to the perimeter of the circumference and that the electric flow is the rate of change of the electric field by the area, we have to

B(2\pi r) = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d(EA)}{dt}

Recall that the speed of light is equivalent to

c^2 = \frac{1}{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}

Then replacing,

B(2\pi r) = \frac{1}{C^2} (\pi r^2) \frac{d(E)}{dt}

B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}

Our values are given as

dE = 2150N/C

dt = 5s

C = 3*10^8m/s

D = 0.440m \rightarrow r = 0.220m

Replacing we have,

B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}

B = \frac{0.220}{2(3*10^8)^2} \frac{2150}{5}

B =5.25*10^{-16}T

Therefore the magnetic field around this circular area is B =5.25*10^{-16}T
