True. The claim is true. Cry (crystalline) proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) bacteria, when ingested by pest larvae, are activated in their alkaline digestive tract. The activated toxins bind to specific receptors on t...

"This gene codes for a protein that causes, when a larva of some pest eats such a plant with this protein, it leads to the perforation of the digestive system of such an animal. And it simply dies. This means we no longer need to use pesticides, because the plant itself is able to defend itself against such an invasion." "Ten gen koduje białko, które powoduje, że kiedy larwa jakiegoś szkodnika zje taką roślinę z tym białkiem, to ono prowadzi do perforacji układu pokarmowego takiego zwierzęcia. No i ono po prostu umiera. Czyli dzięki temu nie musimy już stosować pestycydów, no bo roślina sama jest w stanie się obronić, tak przed taką inwazją."

Yyy i rzeczywiście w yyy takie tego typu zabiegi mają na celu yyy czy podobne zabiegi mają na celu zmniejszenie chemizacji rolnictwa po to, żeby wprowadzać tej chemii jak najmniej yyy do środowiska. Po to też powstały te odmiany tak zwane BT, zbóż, do których wprowadzono gen z bakterii bacilus turengensis. Ten gen koduje białko, które powoduje, że kiedy larwa jakiegoś szkodnika zje taką roślinę z tym białkiem, to ono prowadzi do perforacji układu pokarmowego takiego zwierzęcia. No i ono po prostu umiera. >> Czyli dzięki temu nie musimy już stosować pestycydów, no bo roślina sama jest w stanie się obronić, tak przed taką inwazją. sama jest pestycydem de facto, tylko że nie pestycydem, a czymś, co redukuje szkodnika. >> Tak, nie nazwałbym tego pestycydem, bo no pestycyd jest czymś, co jest szkodliwym dla człowieka, natomiast ta modyfikacja dla człowieka szkodliwa nie jest. Natomiast no czasem zdarza się, że rzeczywiście pojawiają się trochę sprzeczne informacje w kwestii

"For the first time in the documented history of modern science, humanity has deliberately and with full premeditation permanently modified the natural movement of celestial bodies relative to the central star of our entire system. "

"We are entering the Vera Rubin Observatory, and it will be a true game changer, because we are launching a telescope with the largest digital camera in human history, 3.2 gigapixels. This monster will not look at a single point, but will scan the entire sky, constantly creating a time-lapse film of the universe's existence. The LSST program, or Legacy Survey of Space and Time, will generate 20 TB of data every night. Mike Brown said directly: "If someone gave him a suitcase full of money and told him to find Planet Nine, he would build something like the Vera Rubin telescope." This device is capable of detecting objects orders of magnitude dimmer than anything we have had so far. Scientists estimate that the number of known objects in the solar system will increase by as much as a hundredfold thanks to it. If Planet Nine is there, Vera Rubin will find it. If it's the Kuiper Belt disk, Vera Rubin will see its structure. "

"An international team of scientists working with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument known as Desi has published the results of their monumental research on the evolution of the cosmos using baryonic acoustic oscillations. When these extremely accurate maps of cosmic structures were combined with those known from cosmic microwave background radiation and traditional supernovae, scientists obtained a clear and unambiguous signal. Dark energy is not a constant value. "

"the results delighted everyone, because the material obtained in the laboratory showed a powerful drop in shear wave velocity and a Poisson's ratio perfectly consistent with actual seismic measurements of the Earth's exterior. So, undeniable experimental evidence confirming the superionic nature of the core appeared before us. "
