Genetic engineering has played an increasingly important part in the business of agriculture‚ resulting in the introduction of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) which have been created by altering genetic materials by way of genetic engineering. While GMOs have a multitude of applications‚ I will focus primarily on GMO technology used to grow and develop food crops and the growing controversy surrounding the practice. According to National Agricultural Statistics Service (2010)‚ over 80% of

Genetic engineering is modification of a plant’s or animal’s DNA. Scientists do this to enhance a certain gene within the organism. Some opponents of genetically modified food argue that growing this kind of food will ruin the environment and the ecosystem permanently. In fact‚ genetically modified food is beneficial for

subject injected into another. These experimental combinations of genes from different species cannot occur in nature or in traditional crossbreeding. GMOs are engineered to withstand direct application of herbicide and/or to produce all insecticide (Biotech). Ever see an abnormally large fruit? That could most likely be the by-product of a certain gene that was inserted into the fruit in order to produce more product. Another GMO test was done on tomatoes. They were injected with antifreeze

unhealthy and should be illegal. Tobacco is an agricultural crop (Knouf) and was designed to be an insecticide. Nicotine is the chief addictive ingredient in cigarettes‚ cigars and snuff. It has a unique biphasic effect: inhaled in short puffs‚ it is a stimulant‚ but it can be a tranquilizer when inhaled slowly and deeply. In larger doses nicotine is a highly toxic poison‚ used as an insecticide‚ fumigant‚ and vermifuge a medicine that expels parasitic and intestinal worms (http://www.answers.com/topic/nicotine)

RP spoke with a previous group home employee who confirmed a staff smoked "weed" while she was working in the facility. For the past month‚ Tommy has arrived to school with a cluster of bug bites on his body. Consequently the group home has used insecticide to rid the facility of the bed bugs. Unfortunately it doesn’t appear to have worked. The RP contacted the group home who believes the child received the bites from his father’s home.
