Food is the basic requirement for living‚ as more and more people need food while the population was increased every year‚ food is becoming an important issue in the world. The invention of Genetically Modified food is a reasonable solution to solve this issue. Therefore‚ the Genetically Modified food should not be banned for several reasons. In addition to the fact that Genetically Modified food already provides benefits to us‚ there are several considerable profits to agriculture‚ environment and

My Script: Genetically Modified Foods‚ also known as GM foods‚ is the process of using biotechnology techniques to create specific changes into the foods DNA‚ using methods of genetic engineering. These techniques can allow our food to be modified. This then allows us to make our crops resistant to pests and disease‚ which benefits farmers‚ so they don’t have to spend excessive amounts of money on insecticides‚ it also enables the foods to have the capability to adapt to any environmental conditions

Are genetically modified foods safe to eat? Nowadays‚ genetically modified crops are planted worldwide. According to Human Genome Project‚ over 10 million farmers in 22 countries are planting genetically modified crops on the fields. The total acreage has reached a quarter billion (2011). Apparently‚ genetically modified foods have prominent benefits so that more and more people are planting them and eating them. Genetically modified plants are able to resist pests and certain kinds of diseases

Genetically Modified Foods: a Growing Concern? Living in America‚ we sometimes forget what a huge problem malnutrition and starvation are in other parts of the world. It ’s estimated that over 852 million people in the world are severely food deprived. Now‚ imagine a world where no one goes hungry‚ a farmer ’s crop can survive a long drought or an early frost and still produce a large harvest‚ and harmful insects and weeds cannot survive in the same field as a crop. Imagine a world where malnutrition

Draft) Genetically Engineered Food Should people be worried about genetically engineered/modified food? Many people are starting to question what it is exactly that they are eating and how it could possibly harm them. Specifically‚ the harm that could befall them from GM food. A genetically modified organism is something that received one or more genes from another organism. There are three arguments that the people worried about GM food put on the table; those arguments being: GM food should

The Negative Consequences of Genetically Modified Food Genetically modified foods (GM foods‚ or biotech foods) are hazardous to your health. These foods are derived from genetically modified organisms (GMOs)‚ specifically‚ genetically modified crops. GMOs have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. Genetically modified organisms‚ or GMOs‚ are created when a gene from one species is transferred to another‚ creating something that would not be found in

2013 Genetically Modified Foods: Good for Us? Scientists have learned how to modify foods in the last decades of the twentieth century. That is‚ they have learned to manipulate the DNA of plants and animals. Scientists were able to transfer a trait from one organism to another by splicing the DNA of one organism into the DNA of another organism ("Introduction"). This process changes the genetic makeup of plants and labels these altered foods "genetically modified organisms." Food should not

The controversy over genetically modified (GM) food‚ also known as genetically modified organisms (GMOs)‚ is viewed in diverse manners worldwide. Some individuals believe that GM food is more beneficial to society than not‚ while others bear strong beliefs that they may cause negative and harmful effects in the future. There are several reasons that could lead a person to believe that GM foods have a variety of advantages. However‚ there are various factors that could lead a person to
