DEBATE REGARDING GENETICALLY MODIFIED CROPS INTRODUCTION:- For thousands of years‚ human beings have modified nature’s organisms for usage in agriculture. New technology has furthered this trend: recombinant DNA technology allows biotechnology firms to insert DNAs into plant genomes‚ thereby creating plants that express the desired traits. Use of such genetically modified organisms (GMOs) has prompted controversy‚ especially for its role in ensuring food security. As such‚ the use of

Competition‚ Predation‚ and Symbiosis — Graphic Organizer Objective : To identify the ways that organisms interact with other organisms within their environment. Natural selection is a process through which characteristic that makes an individual better suited to its environment may eventually become common in that species. Adaption is a result of natural selection in the behaviors and physical characteristics that allow organisms to live successfully in their environment.
