Which of these is not true about weight:
a) it is a measurement of how heavy an object is.
eliminate
b) it is always the same as mass, regardless of gravity.
c) it is affected by an object's mass and the force of gravity.
d) it is commonly measured in units such as grams, kilograms, ounces, and pounds.

B. It is always the same as mass regardless of gravity.

Explanation:

An object will always have the same mass no matter the weight or gravity, but it will not have the same weight as the mass of the object no matter the gravity. I hope this helps.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
