1. The corn plants in the image below have been grown with Lepidoptera sp. larvae,
insects that feed on the corn's cob and leaves. Select the statement that is correct,
based on the image.
B. A resistance gene was inserted into the plant on the right that makes the corn
resistant to Lepidoptera sp. larvae.
2. In the image below, the corn plant on the left has been grown with Lepidoptera sp.

that the plant on the right is resistant to Lepidoptera, and why?
C. No, we cannot conclude whether or not the corn plant on the right is resistant
because it has not been exposed to Lepidoptera.

Which promoter would you choose if the modified gene produces toxins that are not
safe for livestock to ingest?
B. Promoter 2.

below. Select the statement that is correct assuming that the following choices were
made as represented by the image below.
