Most of the GMO crops grown today were developed to help farmers prevent crop loss. The three most common traits found in GMO crops are: (1) resistance to insect damage; (2) tolerance to herbicides; and (3) resistance to plant viruses. Let's consider #2, tolerance to herbicides: farmers using herbicide-tolerant crops do not need to till the soil, which they normally do to get rid of weeds. Which of these is NOT a positive environmental and economic impacts of this GMO trait?

Salmonella typhimurium is a food-borne bacterial pathogen that can cause severe gastrointestinal disease. salmonella is often phagocytosed by macrophages that normally destroy bacterial pathogens, but this bacterium is somehow able to prevent the complete maturation of phagolysosomes. salmonella is able to tolerate the low ph of phagolysosomes, and in fact responds to the drop in ph by secreting toxins that interfere with other cellular responses. which of the following differences would you expect to contribute to the survival of a bacterium within an salmonella-containing phagosome, compared to a healthy phagolysosome? decreased activity of acid hydrolases increased activity of acid hydrolases decreased import of h+ ions increased import of h+ ions my guess is decreased activity of acid hydrolases but i'm not sure.
