What typeof organisms can increase genetic variation through reproduction?
both plants and animals
What part of plants is a stem modification for storage?
bulb
Identical genetic copies are known as?
Identical genetic copies are known as clones. Clones are produced by asexual reproduction, such as in plants or bacteria, or through genetic engineering techniques in animals.
What is the difference between a clone organism and a transgenic organism?
Genetic engineering is the combining of DNA from different species and can only be done in the laboratory. Traditional plant and animal breeding stay within the species to get the desired result.
How can biotechnology used to control pests?
This is actually an easy one if i get what youre talking about right. If youre talking specifically about genetic modification, then the answer is that scientists can add and activate genes of certain plants to repel certain pests.
Explain how scientists have attempted to improve crop plants?
Scientists have improved crop plants through selective breeding, genetic modification, and gene editing techniques. Selective breeding involves choosing plants with desirable traits to propagate. Genetic modification involves inserting specific genes into plants to improve traits. Gene editing allows scientists to make precise changes to the plant's genome to enhance desired characteristics.
What types of plants are being modified?
do you mean genetic modification? mostly soybean and potatoes, a bit of corn and rice. if you mean any kind of modification then all plant life undergoes modifications all the time
What is hybrid variety?
Hybrid varieties are those which are developed through crossing two plants of the same species. It is distinguishable from genetic modification because it is accomplished without manipulating the DNA through physically cutting a gene from one plant and then inserting it into another. It is also different from genetic engineering in that hybridization crosses plants of the same or similar species and genetic engineering removes a gene or gene from one species, such as a bacteria or virus, and inserts it into a totally different species, such as corn or soy.
What is the importance of reproduction in the production of crop?
Reproduction is crucial in crop production as it allows plants to generate seeds for future growth and continuity. By reproducing, crops can maintain genetic diversity, adapt to changing environments, and ensure the availability of food sources for humans and animals. Successful reproduction also enables the crop plants to pass on desirable traits to future generations through selective breeding or genetic modification.
What typeof organisms can increase genetic variation through reproduction?
both plants and animals
What is one advantage of using genetic modification?
Some advantages are that they can make plants pest resistance, disease resistance, cold resistance, bigger in size and tastier.
What is the modification of maize plamt?
Maize plants have been modified through genetic engineering to improve traits such as resistance to pests and diseases, tolerance to herbicides, and increased nutritional content. These modifications have been made to address challenges in agriculture and enhance the productivity and sustainability of maize crops.
What technique has been used to modify agricultural plants?
Genetic engineering techniques, such as CRISPR-Cas9, have been used to modify agricultural plants by introducing specific desired traits or genes into their DNA, leading to improved crop yield, resistance to pests or diseases, and tolerance to environmental stressors.
Why is it that a carrot plant can express a bacterial gene?
Carrot plants can express a bacterial gene if the gene has been successfully incorporated into the plant's genome through genetic modification techniques. This process involves introducing the bacterial gene into the plant cells through methods like genetic engineering or transformation. Once incorporated, the plant's cellular machinery can interpret and express the bacterial gene just like any other gene in its genome.
