Benefits of Biotech in NC
North Carolina is an attractive terrain for biotechnology firms—from 2001 to 2010, the state experienced the highest job growth rate (23.5%) of any of the top biotechnology states in the country. Since 2001, the popularity of NC as a biotech destination has resulted in the creation of more than 12,000 jobs in pharmaceuticals, research, testing and medical labs, agricultural feedstock and chemical industries. All have shown robust growth. Related image
Students in NC have more opportunities to enter the field of biotechnology after graduation than in most states thanks to two very important research centers. The North Carolina Research Center located in Kannapolis and Research Triangle Park near Raleigh, are very important to the NC economy. Both of these facilities bring in tax revenue to our state and offer job opportunities in many science-based fields of study. Image result for research triangle
More than 250 companies and 50,000 people with expertise in fields such as micro-electronics, telecommunications, biotechnology, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and environmental sciences are located here in NC. Industries invest more than $300 million in Research & Development at the region’s universities each year – double the average R&D investment for innovation clusters elsewhere in the nation. Because of these centers, NC is a leader in biotechnology advances in agriculture, energy and medicine. Our state is home to some of the leading physicians, research scientists, biotechnologists, and agricultural scientists in the US.
Some of the key factors that make North Carolina attractive for the biotechnology industry include:
the presence of the pioneering North Carolina Biotechnology Center and Research Triangle Park have lead to financial incentives the state government has provided to companies such as Merck and Quintiles; and the educational programs developed at both the community college and university level to help firms fill openings with qualified local employees with knowledge and training in biotechnology.
Tax revenues increase because of the large number of developing careers in the field of biotechnology in North Carolina.
Biotechnology affects us in every area of our lives, our food, water, medicine and shelter, improving quality of life. When it comes to Biotechnology, nothing could be finer than to live in North Carolina!

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

look at Explanation

Explanation:

North Carolina’s biotech industry is quickly expanding.

Within the state, there are more than 600 life science companies employing 61,000 people at an average salary exceeding $81,000 a year – which is nearly twice the state’s overall private sector wage, according to the North Carolina Biotechnology Center.

In total, life science companies and institutions in North Carolina generate $73 billion in economic activity, which is an increase of 23 percent in two years, and account for 228,259 direct and indirect jobs, says North Carolina Biotechnology Center.

Furthermore, while employment in the nation’s life science industry rose by 7.4 percent from 2001 to 2012, North Carolina’s grew at a surprising 31 percent, even with setbacks from the Great Recession of 2008.

Following closely behind California, North Carolina outpaced life science industry growth in other states, including Texas, New York, Massachusetts and Florida, between 2009-2012, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In the chart below, North Carolina's life science industry grew 5.2% from 2009 to 2012. While California's life sciences industry increased even more at 5.5% during the same time period, other states such as Pennsylvania and New Jersey actually saw their life sciences sectors shrink by 7% and 7.3%, respectively.

Daphnia are freshwater organisms sometimes referred to as “water fleas.” Design an experiment thatcould be used to test the effects of temperature on the size of a daphnia population. In your
experimental design, be sure to:
• state a hypothesis to be tested
• describe how the control group will be treated differently from the experimental group
• identify the independent variable in the experiment
• identify the type of data that will be collected

Answers

An experiment is where scientific data is gathered and analysed to form inferences. Moreover, we can establish a testing ground on the daphnia population, let say by embryology. Hence, we can observe ina controlled manner how temperature influences the growth and formation of offspring by mothers of the daphnia population considering that offspring can contribute to population growth. 

Answer

• state a hypothesis to be tested

Development rate increases faster with temperature that growth rate

• describe how the control group will be treated differently from the experimental group

The control group will be raised at 8 different temperatures to assess their size at maturity, and their asymptotic size.

• identify the independent variable in the experiment

3 clonal lines that differ in asymptotic size and growth rate.

• identify the type of data that will be collected

Measurements of the individual length of Daphnia

Explanation

In this experiment, the temperature-size rile(TSR) was utilized where it will be found that responses on temperature size observed at maturity is different from that manifested at asymptotic size. It will be observed that thermal shift in resources allocation may completely or partly result to a thermal plasticity in maturity size. Moreover, it will be seen that thermal plasticity in asymptotic size is controlled by temperature related challenges.


Different kinds of tissues that work together to perform a certain function are called organs muscles cells

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is organs.

Explanation:

The body of a human being is formed of various cells, that is, why it is considered as a multicellular organism. A multicellular species exhibits five layers of the organization, known as hierarchy, which lies in the order of complexity as organelles, cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems.  

Of which organs comprise different tissues, which function together to perform a specific activity. The organs are further grouped together into organ systems. Some of the examples of organ systems are the circulatory system and the digestive system.  

Different types of tissues work together to form an Organ.

Using credible sources, such as NASA, research the typical climate conditions in coniferous forests. Explain why the structure of pinecones helps ensure successful reproduction in coniferous forests.

Answers

Answer:

Precipitation in coniferous forests varies from 300 to 900 mm annually, with some temperate coniferous forests receiving up to 2,000 mm/ year (79 in/year). The amount of precipitation depends on the forest location. In the northern boreal forests, the winters are long, cold and dry, while the short summers are moderately warm and moist. In the lower latitudes, precipitation is more evenly distributed throughout the year.

         The climate conditions of coniferous trees normally have summer temperatures that range from -40°F to 68°F with seasons ranging with an average of cold, long, snowy winters, and warm, humid summers. With defined 4 seasons, and at least 4-6 frost-free months. The precipitation has about 12 to 35 inches of rain each year. The in these areas of course the vegetation they have is coniferous trees, but the main dominant trees are pines, spruces, firs, and larches. With mosses, liverworts, and lichens covering the main ground.
