Answer:
- The co-worker is wrong, it is indeed possible
- Genetically engineered plants may represent a milestone to alleviate hunger in the world
Explanation:
During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and water (H2O) from soil and rain in order to produce oxygen and glucose, which is a sugar (molecular formula C6H12O6). Subsequently, plants release oxygen into the air and store energy (and carbon compounds) in the form of glucose. In consequence, an increase in the photosynthetic rate is directly associated with an increase in both the production of oxygen and glucose. On the other hand, genetically engineered plants can help to reduce hunger in developing countries. In consequence, it is acceptable to develop genetically modified plants as long as contemplating regulatory measures aimed at producing safe products (for example, by avoiding the introduction of genetically engineered genes into wild crop populations).
Clouded leopards are medium sized, endangered species of cat, living in the very wet cloud forests of Central America. Assume that the normal spots (XDY)are a dominant, sex-linked trait and that dark spots are the recessive counterpart. What is the possible genotype of the mother?
Answer:
It is all black
Explanation:
Because it changes over time.
A prospective groom, who is healthy, has a sister with cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disease. Their parents are normal. The brother plans to marry a woman who has no history of CF in her family. What is the probability that they will produce a CF child? They are both Caucasian, and the overall frequency of CF in the Caucasian population is 1/2500—that is, 1 affected child per 2500. (Assume the population meets the Hardy-Weinberg assumptions.)
Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information:
Since the parent are normal; Let assume that their trait is Pp
The affected sister will be recessive in nature, so the trait will be pp
Now, the husband who is the groom will be a carrier with a probability of 2/3 since her sister is affected.
Also, the wife will be carrying a heterozygous trait since she is normal as well.
However, using Hardy-Weinberg assumption:
[tex]q^2 = \dfrac{1}{2500}= 0.0004[/tex]
[tex]q = \sqrt{0.0004}[/tex]
q = 0.02
Recall that:
[tex]p+q =1 \\ p = 1 - q \\p = 1 - 0.02 \\p = 0.98\\[/tex]
Thus, [tex]p^2 = (0.98)^2[/tex]
[tex]p^2 = 0.9604[/tex]
[tex]2pq = 2 \times 0.98 \times 0.022[/tex]
2pq = 0.0392
Finally, the required probability that there will be an affected offspring amongst the family is:
[tex]= \dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{2}{3} \times 0.0392[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{1}{153}[/tex]

Living organisms are classified in different ways. Cells can help determine an organism's classification. Describe how an organism with plant cells might be classified differently than an organism with animal cells.
Explanation:
A plant cell consists of one large vacuole that maintains the shape of the cell and stores nutrients. Animal cells, on the other hand, have multiple smaller vacuoles. Both plant and animal cells have a cell membrane, but only the former has a cell wall.

Why does the mass of a substance remain the same after a chemical reaction
Answer:
Even in a chemical reaction when atoms interact and create new products, mass is conserved. This is because the new substances created are composed of atoms that were present in the reactants. The atoms from the reactants come apart, rearrange, and re-bond in a different arrangement to form the products.

Explain how a human baby gets 46 chromosomes:
Answer:
Meiosis is the start of the process of how a baby grows. Normally, meiosis causes each parent to give 23 chromosomes to a pregnancy. When a sperm fertilizes an egg, the union leads to a baby with 46 chromosomes.
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a measure of bone strength. Studies show that BMD declines after age 45. The impact of exercise may increase BMD.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
As you age, your body may reabsorb calcium and phosphate from your bones instead of keeping these minerals in your bones. This makes your bones weaker. When this process reaches a certain stage, it is called osteoporosis. Many times, a person will fracture a bone before they even know they have bone loss.

The Galapagos pink land iguana, Conolophus marthae (C. marthaes, is native to
only one of the Galapagos Islands. its entire range is currently limited to Wolf
Volcano on Isabella Island. The iguana was first discovered this island in 1986
Genetic studies of the animal began sometime later, and it was identified as a
species separate from other guana populations on the Galapagos in 2009. Its
population might have been as high as 100 in 1986, but now there might be as few
as 10 of the animals left alive
Other evidence indicates at this species could have diverged from another line
of iguanas about 5.7 million years ago. After that the other line of iguanas diverged
into two other species. Cpallidus and C subcristatus
Which evolutionary tree best represents the information about the pink land iguana provided

Choose one of the following scenarios and answer the questions provided. Support your answers using scientific reasoning and discussing possible impacts to individuals, society, and the environment. Be sure to also discuss any medical or ethical issues that may apply. (10 points)
Scenario 1:
Genetic engineering can be used to create more productive strains of farm animals. By adding genes to an animal's DNA, the animal can be made to produce milk or meat containing vital nutrients that would not be found naturally in those products. This provides a greater amount of nutrients per serving of milk or meat.
Do you think that this type of genetic engineering should be pursued? Explain your answer. (5 points)
What are some possible impacts (positive and negative) of this type of genetic engineering on individuals, society, and the environment? (5 points)
Scenario 2:
In the future, doctors may be able to evaluate your DNA to check for genetic markers related to specific medical conditions or harmful reactions to medications. Your personalized genetic profile could be kept on record and referred to in order to develop personal medical treatment based on your unique DNA sequencing. Scientists have found that just small variations in a specific section of your DNA can help determine how well some medications can work for you or if they would be beneficial at all.
Would you want to have your DNA profile kept in your medical record as a reference for your doctors? Explain your answer. (2 points)
What are potential pros and cons of having such tests done and referring to DNA sequences when determining a patient's medical treatment? (5 points)
Describe how the availability of this technology might affect the frequency of genetic diseases in individuals and populations. (3 points)
Answer:
i tried my best (so many questions on scenario 2)
Explanation:
scenario 1: there are many positive and negative possible impacts that come with genetic engineering. A very negative outcome could come from just one mistake. But if there was a way to ensure that nothing could go wrong than the outcome would be an healthy new meat or milk that's packed with nutrients.
scenario 2: I think if this was a real thing i would be completely for it. If a person was to get their DNA checked then doctors would be able to prescribe a medication that would fit you. this could also prevent any allergic reactions to and medications or treatments.
I personally would want my DNA profile kept on record so that i can be treated with the right medications for me.
(The potential list pros and cons would probally look like this)
PROS
Makes for better treatmentCan show genetic markers related to specific medical conditions or harmful reactions to medications.can help determine how well some medications can work for you or if they would be beneficial at all.CONS
