How do genetically modified foods affect society and the environment?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Genetic modification produces genetically modified animals, plants and organisms. This could result from differences in nutritional content, allergic response, or undesired side effects such as toxicity, organ damage, or gene transfer.

Explanation:

existing species can be overrun by more dominant new species.

Answer 2

One important environmental impact of genetically modified (GM) foods is the threat to biodiversity resulting from the genetic transfer from GM crops to native plant species.

What condition is required for piles of sediment to become a sedimentary rock?

1. Low force
2. High energy
3. High pressure
or 4. Low temperature

Answers

It is high pressure because sedimentary forms in layers of rocks are are very hardly compressed into a solid form.

Sedimentary rocks are created by the accumulation of already existing rocks or fragments of extinct organisms on the Earth's surface, hence option 3 is correct.  

What is a sedimentary rock?

Weathering causes rock fragments to become loose, which are subsequently moved to a basin or depression where sediment is trapped.

Sedimentary rock is created when sediment is firmly buried and gets compressed and cemented. Large boulders to tiny clay particles have been found in clastic sedimentary rocks.

The process of erosion involves moving weathering products from the weathering site, either as solid material or as dissolved components, to finally be deposited as sediment.

Therefore, sediment is any unconsolidated accumulation of solid, weathered material to become a sedimentary rock that requires High pressure, hence option 3 is correct.

Describe the path cereal takes from eating with the mouth to glucose in the body cells. (Note: For full credit, your answer must include complete sentences, at least 4 organs of the digestive system, 1 organ of the circulatory system and the process involved for going between the digestive and circulatory.)

Answers

Answer:

The digestive system converts the foods we eat into their simplest forms, like glucose (sugars), amino acids (that make up protein) or fatty acids (that make up fats). The broken-down food is then absorbed into the bloodstream from the small intestine and the nutrients are carried to each cell in the body.

Thing 2: It takes the shape of a container.

B Both objects are non-matter.
C The first object is matter, and the second object is non-matter.
D The first object is non-matter, and the second object is matter.

Answers

Answer:

D. The first object is not-matter, and the second object is matter.

Explanation:

The first object is gravity, this force pulls things toward the ground. The second object is something I don't know, but it is matter.

hope this helps.

The first object is matter, and the second object is non-matter.

The description provided for each object helps us determine whether they are matter or non-matter.

Thing 1: "It pulls things down toward the ground."

This description implies that Thing 1 has gravitational force, which is a characteristic of matter. Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. Objects with mass, like planets, people, and all physical substances, exhibit gravitational force. Therefore, Thing 1 is a form of matter.

Thing 2: "It takes the shape of a container."

This description indicates that Thing 2 can fill the space within a container and assume its shape. Matter is capable of taking the shape of its container, whether it's a liquid, gas, or solid. This property is a fundamental characteristic of matter. Therefore, Thing 2 is also a form of matter.

Option A, "Both objects are matter," is incorrect because both Thing 1 and Thing 2 are indeed matter, as explained above.

Option B, "Both objects are non-matter," is incorrect because the descriptions provided for both Thing 1 and Thing 2 indicate that they possess properties of matter.

Option C, "The first object is matter, and the second object is non-matter," is also incorrect, as both objects are matter based on their respective descriptions.

Option D, "The first object is non-matter, and the second object is matter," is not true based on the explanations provided for both Thing 1 and Thing 2.

In conclusion, both Thing 1 and Thing 2 described in the statements are forms of matter due to their properties and characteristics associated with matter.

C.

D.

Answers

The temperature should be decreased, but the pressure should not be changed.

What is Temperature and Pressure relation ?

In contrast, as a gas's pressure falls, its volume rises as a result of the gas's ability to spread its particles farther apart. Because the volume of the gas has risen, weather balloons become larger as they ascend through the sky to lower pressure areas.

This is because when the atmospheric gas exerts less pressure on the balloon's surface, the inside gas expands until the internal and external pressures are equal.

Some of the early studies that established the quantitative relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas were done by the Irish chemist Robert Boyle (1627-1691).

Therefore, The temperature should be decreased, but the pressure should not be changed.

A fossil fuel has been hydrogen that contain the material found in the nature in the earth's crust from the remain of the dead plants and animals that has been extracted and burned as the fuel. Fossil are natural source of energy, it is made from decomposition of plants and animals. Fossil fuels are found in the earth's crust and it must contains carbon and hydrogen which could gives energy by the burning. Natural gas usually found in pockets above oil deposits. It is also found where natural oil is found.

Coal, oil including natural gas are the best examples of the fossil fuels.  Coal has been a material usually found in  the sedimentary rock deposits where rock and plants are buried from long time. Oil has been originally found as the solid material between layers of sedimentay rocks, like shale. This material has been heated and converted into a gasoline.

C is the correct answer.

Explanation:
