What are the classifications of pesticides according to their general use?

Biology Questions please help?

• 1. Cancers are named according to their origin; therefore, skin cancer is a type of ______. Answer sarcoma carcinoma lymphoma chondrosarcoma leukemia 2. You conduct a dihybrid cross and then testcross the F1 generation. A ______ ratio would make you suspect that the genes are linked. Answer 3:1 1:2:1 1:1:1:1 7:7:1:1 9:3:3:1 3. What is the advantage of being able to clone the gene for human insulin? Answer Human insulin is more variable than other sources of insulin, so cloning would provide a greater chance of obtaining a form that can be used by the diabetic's muscles. There are too few cows, pigs, and horses to provide an adequate supply of their insulin. Human insulin is less likely to provoke an allergic reaction than cow, pig, or horse insulin. Cow, pig, or horse insulin cannot keep a diabetic alive for more than three months. Using human insulin increases the probability that, in the future, the diabetic can be weaned from a dependence on insulin. 4. What are some of the potential problems with Genetically Modified Foods (GMO's)? (choose all that apply) Answer Tampering with nature by mixing genes among species Potential human health impacts, including allergens, transfer of antibiotic resistance markers, unknown effects Enhanced shelf life. Less use of fertilizers and pesticides for agriculture. Domination of world food production by a few companies Potential environmental impacts, including: unintended transfer of transgenes through cross-pollination, unknown effects on other organisms, and loss of flora and fauna biodiversity 5. What is Gene Therapy? Answer a.Gene Therapy is the same as Stem Cell Therapy b.Gene Therapy is a technique for correcting defective genes responsible for disease development. c.Gene Therapy is when a "normal" gene is inserted into the genome to replace an "abnormal," disease-causing gene. d.Answer 2 and 3 are both correct 6. What is the Human Genome Project Answer A project that is responsible for genetic testing to provide genetic information to insurance companies A project that is storing DNA information of individuals from all over the world in databases The project responsible for identifying all the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA All of the above 7.What is the Genographic Project? Answer The Genographic Project is a research partnership between National Geographic and IBM, their purpose is to research human cloning. The Genographic Project is a five-year research partnership that hopes to solve world hunger by providing Genetically Modified crops to developing nations. The Genographic Project analyzes historical patterns in DNA from participants around the world to better understand our human genetic roots. The Genographic Project is responsible for identifying all of the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA 8. What are some of the societal concerns of the Human Genome Project? Answer Who owns and controls genetic information?/Who owns genes and other pieces of DNA? Fairness in the use of genetic information by insurers, employers, courts, schools, adoption agencies, and the military, among others. Psychological impact and stigmatization due to an individual's genetic differences. All of the above 9. What are the possible uses of cloning? (select all that apply) Answer Scientists hope that one day therapeutic cloning can be used to generate tissues and organs for transplants. Reproductive cloning also could be used to repopulate endangered animals or animals that are difficult to breed. Cloning can introduce new diversity into a population. Therapeutic cloning can be used to produce human embryos for harvesting stem cells that can be used to study human development and to treat disease. I know its long but I will give 10 points thanks !
