http://cls.casa.colostate.edu/transgeniccrops/what.html What Are Transgenic Plants? A transgenic crop plant contains a gene or genes which have been artificially inserted instead of the plant acquiring them through pollination. The inserted gene sequence (known as the transgene) may come from another unrelated plant, or from a completely different species: transgenic Bt corn, for example, which produces its own insecticide, contains a gene from a bacterium. Plants containing transgenes are often

numerical answer. This is because we don’t know what a, and b, are, all they are to us is algebraic pronumerals. However we could evaluate this if we were told that a=3 and b=2 we could get an actual answer. So the first step would be simplifying the question down to an understandable level then evaluating the equation with the given information. Then the evaluating of the equation can be done through the process of the simplification process. This is the answer but when working with numbers that
