Which of the following is an experiment that a bioengineer would use to further the field of agriculture?

a. splicing a gene of fruit plant with a glow-in-the-dark gene
b. splicing a gene of tree with a gene that makes smaller leaves
c. splicing a gene of flower with a gene that makes striped petals (this is done in the floral industry)
d. splicing a gene of vegetable plant with a gene that makes the plant pesticide-resistant

when you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. this increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. the intercostal muscles between your ribs also enlarge the chest cavity. they contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.
