A. An undifferentiated cell that has not yet been programmed and can become any type of cell = Stem cell

C. Traits that are influenced by more than one gene = Polygenic traits  

F. Genetic engineering that exactly duplicates an organism = Reproductive cloning    

G. Identical twins = Monozygotic twins  

H. Making mRNA from DNA = Transcription

J. A change in the DNA sequence = Mutation  

K. Fraternal twins = Dizygotic twins  

L. Thirteen DNA sequences that all humans carry = Short tandem repeats  

M. Traits that involve the actions of many genes but also interact with the environment = Quantitative traits

N. Uses ribose as the sugar in the nucleotide = Ribonucleic acid

Explanation:

Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that are capable of self-renewal or differentiation into many different types of cells. Polygenic traits are phenotypic traits influenced by two or more genes, while quantitative traits are phenotypic features controlled by the combined effects of many genes and environmental factors. Reproductive cloning is a laboratory technique used to produce genetically identical individuals from mature somatic cells. Monozygotic twins are identical twins obtained by fertilization of a single egg cell which then splits in two, while dizygotic twins are generated by fertilization of two different eggs. Transcription is the process where the genetic information contained in a strand of DNA is copied into a particular type of RNA (mRNA, tRNA, ncRNA, etc). A mutation is a genetic alteration in the DNA sequence of a cell of a living organism that is produced during DNA replication. Short tandem repeats (STRs) are repeated DNA sequences (2-16 nucleotides, two or more times) that are adjacent to each other. In humans, there are 13 well-characterized STR sequences known to be associated with populations of different ethnic groups.

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.

just finished the test, the answer is d, greg is the least cost-effective because he charges the most for the project
