Ans: C. bottom-up processing

Bottom-up processing begins with the most basic of our senses, whether it be sight, smell, or taste. For example, when we see an object, the rod and cone receptors allow us to see the object’s depth and color with our eyes. Our brains’ occipital lobe will then process this visual information into something we can analyze. This is where bottom-up processing can come into play. Sometimes we do not know what an object is right away. That’s why sometimes a plastic bag on the side of the road looks like road kill at first glance; with bottom-up processing, we experience the stimulus first, then analyze it later. However, bottom-up processing is not just associated with sight. Bottom-up processing is also be used to analyze tastes.

Bottom-up processing is used in even the most popular places. Whenever we are exposed to unfamiliar stimuli, we use bottom-up processing to analyze the stimuli. Whenever you enter a kitchen, and someone asks, “Have a bite of this, what does it taste like to you?” you will then use bottom-up processing to determine what that food tastes like.

Background: Being able to accurately identify specific genes on bacterial, plant and animal chromosomes and then modify them, has been one of the recent goals of molecular biology. Over the years various endonuclease systems, such as zinc finger nucleases, have been devised and used. However, their targeting ability was limited and many “off target” effects have happened. In 2012, a new term erupted in the biological literature – CRISPR, which is an acronym for Clustered Randomly Inserted Short Palindromic Repeats....
