Summary Introduction
Introduction:
For the recognition of the pathogens, the plants and the animals have developed certain receptors, which recognize the patterns present on the surface of the pathogens. The recognition of the molecules induces the innate immunity.

There is a strict conditions that should be met before genetic engineering in plant crops could be successful, which of the following is true? *
A. there should be a large number of genes
B. genes that would be added should be specified
C. genes that would be added should be mixed with other desirable genes
D. the laboratory conditions should have ample oxygen
Which letter is correct
A. Genetic engineering is preferred because a desired gene to crops may not exist in their species, so conventional agriculture could not be applied.
B. Conventional agriculture is preferred because they're natural, and don't have interference in their genome, so they're healthier.
C. Genetic engineering is preferred because through it, we can create new species of plants resistant to pests.
D. Conventional agriculture is preferred because they produce more crop compared to genetic modifications.
An auxotrophic mutant
a. Can harvest its own energy from sunlight.
b. Can harvest its own energy from inorganic chemicals.
c. Grows well on minimal media.
d. Requires nutritional supplements to grow on minimal media.
