    Hydrothermal Vents and its Organisms! A hydrothermal vent is a fissure in a planet’s surface from which geothermally heated water issues. Hydrothermal vents are commonly found near volcanically active places‚ areas where tectonic plates are moving apart‚ ocean basins‚ an hotspots Hydrothermal vents exist because the earth is both geologically active and has large amounts of water on its surface and within its crust. Common land types include hot springs‚ fumaroles and geysers. Under the sea

    ingest. Genetically modified organisms are seen as being either unnatural and detrimental‚ or beneficial and healthier. Genetically modified organisms can be found in the majority of food products and crops. Genetic alteration in crops is when scientists clip a gene from the DNA of one plant and splice it into the DNA of another. (Smith 2). This alteration is what causes the characteristics in plants to be changed. The market for genetically modified organisms has increased dramatically with

    All organisms that are considered to be alive must possess certain key characteristics or functions. These include: order‚ response to the environment‚ reproduction‚ growth and development‚ regulation‚ energy processing and evolution. Since we recognize life by what living things do‚ these seven characteristics serve to define life. Organisms consist of one or more cells and while they may be very complex they are highly organized and coordinated. Inside each cell‚ atoms make up molecules.

    division of nuclear material in which each new nucleus obtains the same number of chromosomes and the same nuclear code as the original nucleus is call mitosis. Mitosis occurs in four phases. Interphase occurs between mitosis. Interphase: Cell contains easily seen nucleus and nucleolus- chromosomes appear as fine dots within nucleus Mitosis: 4 steps Prophase – cell nucleus enlarged –nucleolus no longer visible- chromosomes appear as short strands within nucleus. Metaphase – chromosomes

    A Genetically Modified Organism is an organism whose inherited matter has been altered using heritable engineering techniques. It is basically a special set of technologies that alter the genetic makeups in organisms that vary‚ such as plants‚ animals‚ or bacteria. Combining genes from different species is known as recombinant DNA technology‚ and the outcome organism is known as genetically modified. Now the question lies‚ is genetically modified organisms needed to suppress hunger? In my opinion
