White Leaf Disease is a devastating disease that affects sugar cane crops in Thailand and has become a major issue for farmers. The disease starts with a white
line forming in the center of the sugar cane's leaves, which can change in size and
shape as it develops. The sugar cane's new leaves will become increasingly whiter,
often having stunted growth, and resulting in the sugar cane to be less productive
than the non-infected plants. Scientists are trying to determine what organelle is
damaged, making it impossible to maintain homeostasis. Which organelle would this
be?
• Chloroplast
• nucleus
• mitochondria
• ribosomes

Recently, crops of vegetables such as lettuce and green onions have been contaminated, while they are still on the farm, with bacteria that cause food poisoning. how will science influence the way the government responds to prevent an increase in food-borne diseases? because science has shown that lettuce and green onions are not nutritionally valuable, the government may pass laws that ban the sale of lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that there is no way to prevent bacterial contamination, the government may pass laws that punish businesses that buy lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that the washing of hands prevent the spread of infectious diseases among people, the government may pass laws that require hand washing by everyone who handles food. because science has shown there are ways to find the source of the contamination, the government may pass laws that require farm practices that reduce the contamination of lettuce and green onions.
