DNA fingerprinting is where DNA is used to create a profile for someone often in crimes. The STR or Short Tandem Repeats are used for this. STRs are non-coding sections of DNA which repeat themselves for example CACACACACACACACACACA the location of this STR and the length of the STR (how many times it repeats) are used to identify a specific person
Answer:
green light is not real light plants need the sun which produces real energy
Saccharides are the monomers which are combined to form carbohydrates.
Depending on the type of carbohydrate, the monomer components can be monosaccharides, disaccharide, polysaccharide, etc.
E.g: Sucrose is a carbohydrate (specifically a dissacharide) that is made of glucose and fructose monosaccharides.
Another example is cellulose, which is a carbohydrate (specifically a polysaccharide) that is made of beta glucose monosaccharide components combined together.
The right answer is b. Tree.
Some plants (like trees) have evolved with different unusual nutritional adaptations over time. Heterotrophic plants are plants that use only or partly a source of organic carbon to grow, unlike the most common autotrophic plants, which use inorganic carbon and water to grow, often through the process of photosynthesis (photoautotrophic).
Answer:
Explanation:
the advantages include:
disease and drought resistant crops that require fewer environmental resources for them to grow
higher yields harvested as the crops are not attacked by pests resulting in humans receiving more food as well as generating more money from the trading of their crops
increased supply of food at a cheaper life and the crops could have a longer shelf life
crops bound to be healthy as they ae not constantly treated by pesticides that could harm people
reduce the use of pesticides that might be a great move for the betterment of the food supply
they reduce the use of toxins that could harm the environment as well as the animals and people
disadvantages
unexpected or harmful genetic changes that could result in humans health being threatened
the process of genetically modifying the crops is quite expensive
due to the plants becoming pest resistant the pests are bound to have no food hence could die leading to some helpful pests such as beetles or ladybugs that actually benefit the environment going extinct
the production of genetically modified crops results in the disruption of biodiversity as you are favouring one specific organism hence resulting in the disruption of the natural gene flow
the crops are modified hence biotech foods may be a threat to the human health
