Scientists have been genetically modifying food crops since the mid 1990's. as a result, scientists have been able to produce crops that are more disease resistant. what could be seen as a risk associated with using genetically modified crops? a) reduction in nutritional value of the food crop b) plants can be "tailor made" for the desired trait c) crops may cause an increase of allergic reactions in humans d) crop production would be increased due to greater disease resistance

The correct answer would be C)crops may cause an increase of allergic reactions in humans.

Transgenic crops are the crops in which the genome is modified through genetic engineering techniques. It usually involves the introduction of a gene from different species which provide desired traits such as disease resistance, high nutrition value et cetera.

Due to genetic modification, the crops may act cause disease or allergic reactions in humans.  

Our body may produce immunogenic or allergic reaction towards the genetically modified crops.

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c
