A vertical farm would be a large‚ independently operating structure centrally located in a major city. It would feature two multi-storey‚ skyscraper-like buildings working together- one to manage food production with nutrient film techniques‚ and another to manage waste through living machines and generate

The controversial issue of genetically modified foods‚ commonly known as GM’s‚ has only gained the attention of millions‚ since it became a prominent and highly debated global issue. Genetically modified foods are created when the genes of an organism are engineered and modified to create a new or enhanced version of that organism. The process of using different genes from different sources to genetically modify foods led to public outcry and sometimes‚ praise. People in support of genetically modified

For each type‚ describe its role in determining protein structure. Different types of bonds/interactions in proteins lead to different kinds of structures. Three of the most commonly known chemical bonds in proteins include the hydrogen bond‚ the covalent bond‚ and the ionic bond. In hydrogen bonds‚ hydrogen interacts with

Genetically modified organism is one of the least talked about topics in relations to current ongoing problems. For those who don’t know exactly what a genetically modified organism (GMO)‚ a GMO is known as an organism that has been genetically modified this genetic material has been reformed to improve product quality. GMOs are used for many things although the best-known use is for genetically modified foods. According to the World Health Organization “Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods

They also create important food sources and are beneficial through processes such as pollination and scavenging. The high degree of insect diversity is due to a combination of high rates of speciation and low rates of extinction.(2) The orders with the highest species richness include Coleoptera (beetles)‚ Hymenoptera (ants‚ wasps and bees)

‘Define Biodiversity and using examples‚ explain why it is important’ Biodiversity is the variety of life on earth. A fuller definition is given in the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) from the 1992 Earth summit: ‘Biodiversity is the variability among living organisms from all sources‚ including terrestrial‚ marine‚ and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are part ; this includes diversity within species‚ between species and of ecosystems’ (Hambler‚ C.‚ 2004

DEBATE STRUCTURE Overall Argument: Aside from common belief‚ scientists claim that genetically modifying plants is natural‚ and GM crops hold the only hope for feeding the rapidly expanding world population. GM crops can have health benefits‚ they have the potential of helping the world’s poor people‚ and GM technology can help the environment. Genetically modified crops are thoroughly tested for potential risks and have to oblige to highly regulated laws. First Talking Point (A): GM Crops
