Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

The material that causes fireflies to glow in the dark has uses in medicine, but it is difficult to obtain enough material to be practical. Scientists have been experimenting with inserting genetic material from fireflies into tobacco plants in the hope that they can breed new plants that will provide a readily available and inexpensive supply of the firefly substance.
