What questions would you ask of scientists before deciding whether to approve the new crop? What scientific data would you want to see? Would you also consult nonscientists? Would you consider ethical, economic, and social factors?arrow_forwardMoving Forward by Looking Back. (Q1) Several generations of farmers in Southern England have grown various plants that originated from the wild mustard plant to sell them to local markets. These plants are listed in the figure below and include: kohlrabi, kale, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage and cauliflower. While these plants originated from the wild mustard, they do not look like the wild mustard plant. Over many generations of farm-work involving growing wild mustard and multiple trials and errors, the farmers grew plants with the tastiest varieties and only used these plants to produce new plants of the same kind. This process is known as selective breeding. Brussels sprouts Lateral leaf buds Wild Mustard Plant Broccol Flower buds/stems Brassica Oleracea Answer the following introductory questions: 1.

Why is this genetic diversity important? O The varieties of lettuce have no gene flow with other populations of their species. O Some of the varieties of lettuce can grow better and flourish in well-fertilized soil. The garden as a whole is more likely to survive if its environment were to suddenly change. O All of the varieties of lettuce will die if you change the water or fertilizer used.

Students will explore the diverse ways in which plants contribute to the lives of people in an aging society, from traditional uses to modern innovations, and analyze the impact on economies and societies. Choose a plant or plant product that has an innovative use in the wellness realm, especially that of the elderly. Briefly describe the needs for such a product in the population, the method of use, and potential benefits. Discuss the potential economic and social benefits of these innovations. Analyze challenges and ethical considerations associated with the use of plant-based technologies.arrow_forwardWhy is Plant Taxonomy considered as the most basic and most derived/ synthetic field of Biology?
