Cell division, which results in the creation of two genetically identical cells, is called

A corn plant has the genotype BbRr where BB and Bb plants are resistant to corn borers while bb plants are not AND RR and Rr plants are resistant to Roundup Herbicide while rr plants are not. A corn breeder crosses the BbRr plant with a bbrr plant and produces hundreds of offspring. They grow hundreds of plants from these seeds. What fraction of these offspring will be resistant to corn borers AND Roundup?

Below are the five steps needed to create a new corn hybrid that would be genetically resistant to herbicide X. Please place these steps in the proper order. 1- Cross the transgenic corn plant with other corn plants that can make superior hybrids 2- Extract all genes from a strain of bacteria that is resistant to herbicide X 3- Insert the transgene into corn cells growing in tissue culture and generate a cloned plant from those transformed cells 4- Modify the herbicide X resistance gene so that the gene information can be read by the corn plant in order to make resistance proteins in all cells of the plant 5- Isolate and clone the herbicide X resistance gene from the resistant strain of bacteria

The ____________ uses tungsten or gold bullets coated with DNA is a method to insert new DNA into desired plant tissues.
