Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Two examples of transgenic plants that have been banned have to be found and have to be compared with the two that are allowed. The difference between those allowed and those rejected have to be discussed.
Concept Introduction:
Transgenic organisms are plants and animals whose genome contains genes from one or more other species. The inserted genes can come from species within the same or different kingdoms (for instance, bacteria to plants).
Gene and Genome:
DNA is a
(b)
Interpretation:
The timeline of five events that were key to the rapid increase or subsequent levelling of transgenic crops has to be created.
Concept Introduction:
Transgenic organisms are plants and animals whose genome contains genes from one or more other species. The inserted genes can come from species within the same or different kingdoms (for instance, bacteria to plants).
Gene and Genome:
DNA is a nucleic acid. The nucleic acid is a polymer of the nucleotides which are monomeric units. The sequence of bases of the nucleotides codes an amino acid. Such a sequence of bases is known as DNA codon. Once the amino acids are coded, a protein that is formed from the amino acids can be found. So, the DNA which codes the protein is known as Gene and the sum total of DNA is known as Genome.

- What would be the best choices for the missing reagents 1 and 3 in this synthesis? 1. PPh3 3 2. n-BuLi • Draw the missing reagents in the drawing area below. You can draw them in any arrangement you like. • Do not draw the missing reagent 2. If you draw 1 correctly, we'll know what it is. • Note: if one of your reagents needs to contain a halogen, use bromine. Click and drag to start drawing a structure.arrow_forwardIdentify the missing organic reactants in the following reaction: X + Y H+ two steps Note: This chemical equation only focuses on the important organic molecules in the reaction. Additional inorganic or small-molecule reactants or products (like H2O) are not shown. In the drawing area below, draw the skeletal ("line") structures of the missing organic reactants X and Y. You may draw the structures in any arrangement that you like, so long as they aren't touching. Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
