For the first question regarding the support for genetic modification of crops that are not used for human food, the pattern in the graph that might be explained by this statement is likely:
- **the different adoption rates between cotton and corn**.
This is because cotton is primarily grown for non-food uses (like textiles), which may lead to higher adoption rates, whereas corn is primarily a food crop, which could face more public scrutiny.
For the second question regarding the positive impacts of genetically modified (GM) chickens on society, the applicable answers from the provided choices would be:
- **production of proteins that cure all diseases** (although this statement is overly broad and might not be accurate in its implications).
- **production of pharmaceuticals that cannot be manufactured**, as GM chickens can be genetically modified to produce specific pharmaceuticals.
- **improved medical care for humans**, as the development of GM chickens with enhanced therapeutic properties could lead to better medical treatments.
However, the option **increasing numbers of GMOs in communities** does not necessarily qualify as a positive societal impact.
Therefore, the selections might be:
- production of pharmaceuticals that cannot be manufactured
- improved medical care for humans
Make sure to cross-check the specific claims made, as they can differ based on the context and current scientific consensus.
