INTRODUCTION Genetically modified foods (GM foods or biotech foods) are foods made from genetically modified organisms (GMOs)‚ specifically‚ genetically modified crops. GMOs have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques. These techniques are much more precise than mutagenesis (mutation breeding) where an organism is exposed to radiation or chemicals to create a non-specific but stable change. Other techniques by which humans modify food organisms include selective

A) GM could have done the following to avoid these mistakes: * Expert opinion: GM should have listened to their dealers and the customers to understand the Miami market better. * Consumer Survey: GM should have done a consumer survey to better under stand their target customers and then created their advertisements

GM salmon‚ on the other hand‚ not only will grow faster but also should reach about twice the size of its wild cousin. The creators of the GM salmon‚ a private company called AquaBounty‚ promises to harvest the salmon before it reaches its full size‚ thus preventing "giant" versions [source: Discover Magazine]. The GM salmon‚ known as AquAdvantage

The 21st century has presented a major set of converging threats as the pressures of population growth‚ climate change and food insecurity are driving the world towards worsening hunger and malnutrition.
