Cotton farmers constantly battle with insects that want to eat their crops. Geneticists created transgenic cotton with leaves that repelled insects, such as caterpillars.
Which statement best describes an unintended negative consequence of creating the transgenic cotton?
The cotton plants grew at increased rates but produced fewer flowers.
The cotton produced more and larger flowers.
The cotton began dying very quickly.
The caterpillars instead ate the cotton flowers and damaged cotton production.
hi have a nice day,❤️
Occurrence of diversity in ecosystem sustains particular characteristic of a biological community and also ensures stability of the community. Transgenic crops may affect insect biodiversity by unintended impacts on non-target arthropod population. For example, transgenic GM cotton specific to target lepidopterous pests can change the cotton pest spectrum and may induce the growth of new harmful pest species having no pest status. The change in species composition may influence IPM approach in cotton crop. The results of authors’ research studies as well as global impact indicate that GM cotton is highly specific to target pests and has no unintended impact on non-target insect population. GM cotton provides significant season-long field control of target pests (Helicoverpa armigera, Earias spp. and Pectinophora gossypiella), with no significant control of Spodoptera species. The decreased insecticide use in GM cotton has a positive impact on beneficial insect populations and can increase the stability of rare species.
Answer:
The caterpillars instead ate the cotton flowers and damaged cotton production.
Explanation:
Bt cotton was developed for cold temperate countries like the US where pests are limited - chiefly the bollworm, against which the Bt toxin works and pest load in fields is not high.
But the problem is with the warmer climates like India, where bollworms flourish. Over time, because of the sheer amount of bollworms in warmer climates like India or Southern United States, these bollworms grown an immunity to the Bt toxin and we are back to square one.

Jovie is maintaining a camp fire. She has kept the fire steadily burning for 101010 hours with 151515 logs. She wants to know how many hours (h)(h)left parenthesis, h, right parenthesis she could have kept the fire going with 9 logs. She assumes all logs are the same.
How many hours can Jovie keep the fire going with 9 logs?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
101010:151515 is the same as 2:3 or 2 logs for 3 hours. Using that you can set up your equation as such:
2:3
x:9
And then multiply across:
2x9 = 3x
18/3 = x
6 = x
Jovie can keep the fire running for 6 hours with 9 logs.
Another way to do this is to divide the log numbers, 9/3 = 3, and then multiply the hours by this number, 2x3 = 6.
Hope that helps
the set $s = \$ contains the first $50$ positive integers. after the multiples of 2 and the multiples of 3 are removed, how many integers remain in the set $s$?
Clearly, |S| = 50.
Count the multiples of 2 between 1 and 50:
⌊50/2⌋ = ⌊25⌋ = 25
(where ⌊x⌋ denotes the "floor of x", or the largest integer that is smaller than or equal to x; in other words, round down to the nearest integer)
Count the multiples of 3 between 1 and 50:
⌊50/3⌋ ≈ ⌊16.667⌋ = 16
Since LCM(2, 3) = 6, the sets of multiples of 2 and multiples of 3 have some overlap. Count the multiples of 6 between 1 and 50:
⌊50/6⌋ ≈ ⌊8.333⌋ = 8
Then by the inclusion/exclusion principle, we remove from S
25 + 16 - 8 = 33
elements, so that the new set S contains 50 - 33 = 17 elements.
What is the GCF of 14mn, 56m^2n^3, 28m^3n^2?
a) 7m^2n^2
b) 7mn
c) 14m^3n^3
d) 14m^2n^2
e) 14mn
Answer:
e) 14mn.
Step-by-step explanation:
The GCF of 14, 56 and 28 is 14,
The GCF of m, m^2 and m^3 is m.
The GCF of n, n^2 and n^3 is n.
The answer is therefore 14mn.

Answer:
The answer is B, f(x)=5(2/5)^(z)
Step-by-step explanation:
I did the graphs for all of them and graph B was identical to the one in the picture.
Answer:
(b) f(x) = 5(2/5)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the offered choices agree that the multiplier of the exponential factor is 5. When x=1, the exponential factor must have a value of 2/5 in order to make the function value be 2 at that point.
That is, ...
f(1) = 5(2/5)^1 = 5(2/5) = 2
You can get there either by using x=1 in each of the offered answer choices, or by observing that the ratio between f(1) and f(0) is 2/5.
f(x) = 5(2/5)^x

Answer:
x<3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 2 with 4x and 1 to get 8x + 2 < 3(2x-3). Then multiply 3 by 2x and -3 to get 8x + 2 < 6x- 9. Then subtract -6x on both sides to get 2x + 2< -9. Next subtract 2 from -9 so x is by itself and then you get 2x < 7. Finally divide 2 on each side so you leave x byitself completely. You get x > 3.5

Here we are given that,
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x² + y² = 8 .
And ,
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] xy = 4
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] y = 4/x
So that ,
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x² + (4/x)² = 8
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x² +16/x² = 8
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x⁴ + 16 = 8x²
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x⁴ - 8x² + 16 = 0
Assume k² = x⁴ and k = x²
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k² - 8k + 16 = 0
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k² -4k -4k +16 = 0
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k(k-4) -4(k-4) = 0
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] (k-4)² = 0
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k = 4
So ,
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k = x²
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] 4 = x²
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x = √4
[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x = ±2
Hence the required answer is ±2.
The values of x and y of the given function are; x = y = ±2
Roots of a Polynomial
We are given;
x² + y² = 8 -----(1)
Product of x and y = 4;
Thus; xy = 4
Now, making y the subject we have;
y = 4/x
Putting 4/x for y in eq 1 gives us;
x² + (4/x)² = 8
x² + (16/x²) = 8
Multiply through by by x² to get;
x⁴ + 16 = 8x²
⇒ x⁴ - 8x² + 16 = 0
using online polynomial root calculator, we have x = ±2
Thus, y will also be ±2

Answer: 1.8 x 103 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The average of the two extremes is 1,700 meters. This would be 1.7x10^3 in scientific notation. None of the four options include this number. But three stand out as total losers. We can convert the answer options to see the difference:
O 1.7 x 102 meters = 170 meters [Loser]
O 1.8 x 103 meters = 1800 meters
O 1.7 x 10-3 meters = 0.0017 meters [Loser]

If f(2) for f(x) = [tex]\frac{2}{x-1}[/tex]+6 is 8. then what is [tex]f^{-1} (8)[/tex]
Answer:
2
Explanation:
we get inverse functions by interchanging places of domain and range of the original fuction so rhe domain becomes a range and the range becomes a domain.
so if 2 belongs to the domain of the original fuction and its corresponding element in the range is 8, we simply interchange between 2 and 8 in order to solve the fuction without any subistitution in the original function.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2, 1) and has a
slope of 3/2?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
x1 = -2
y1 = 1
slope (m) = 3/2
Solution:
y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )
y - 1 = 3/2 ( x - (-2) )
y - 1 = 3/2 ( x + 2 )
y - 1 = 3/2x + 3
y = 3/2x + 3 + 1
y = 3/2x + 4

A(-3,4)Jan took her brother out to dinner. The cost of Jan’s dinner was $18.50. The cost of her brother’s dinner was $19.00. If they want to add a 15% tip for the waitress, what will be the total bill?
The total bill that would be paid by Jan is equal to $43.125.
Given the following data:
Cost of Jan’s dinner = $18.50.Cost of brother’s dinner = $19.00.Tip = 15%To determine the total bill that would be paid by Jan:
First of all, we would calculate the total cost of their dinner as follows:
[tex]Total\;cost = 18.50 + 19.00[/tex]
Total cost = $37.50
Next, we would calculate the tip cost for the total cost of their dinner:
[tex]Tip\;cost = \frac{15}{100} \times 37.5\\\\Tip\;cost =0.15\times 37.5[/tex]
Tip cost = $5.625
For the total bill:
[tex]Total\;bill = Total\;cost + Tip\;cost\\\\Total\;bill = 37.5 + 5.625[/tex]
Total bill = $43.125.
