Which best illustrates the importance of dna technology?
an elephant calf that has a mutation in its dna
a dog that has a mechanical limb
a potato plant that is modified to resist pests
a flower that has a pattern designed by people

The answer above is wrong. I took the test and the correct answer is C. a potato plant that is modified to resist pests

a potato plant that is modified to resist pests

Explanation:

DNa technology refers to a variety of techniques used to manipulate the genetic materials of living organisms so as to produce desirable physical or genetic changes to the organism.

A potato plant can have its DNA modified to become resistant to pests. The DNA of the potato is is disrupted and a foreign DNA carrying the relevant gene is introduced into its genome. The transformed plant is then cloned to produce several plants of similar trait with the transformed plant.

An elephant calf with mutation in its DNA has nothing to do with DNA technology as mutation is a natural process.

A dog with a mechanical limb is due to bio-augmentation and not DNA technology.

A flower with a pattern designed by people has nothing to do with DNA technology because the design is not imprinted on the DNA, it is physical.

all these collisions do one thing, and that thing is explained in the last option. when dusst, rocks and ice collide, they harden and form giant layers of rocks or hard ice.

d)   to harden materials to form different parts of earth’s layers
