Genetically Modified Organisms were developed in the mid-1990s. Since they were first created‚ there have always been people who have been against them. These people have made false claims using faulty scientific researches. This research paper will prove that Genetically Modified Organisms should not be feared and should be widely used around the world. This will be done by proving that Genetically Modified Organisms do not present health hazards‚ reduces the impact of the environment‚ and makes

an engineered Lactococcus lactis is that it can be lethal to the nematode parasites in the soil. The Lactococcus lactis produces a crystal protein that‚ when ingested‚ can cause death for the parasites. These Cry proteins have been used as crop insecticides in the past. Some of the nematode species are used to control insect pests as well. The introduction of Lactococcus lactis would no undoubtedly decrease the number of nematode species in the affected area. In turn‚ this would also lower the nematodes

Risk Assessment Decision Page 2 Genericville is currently faced with a decision that is being addressed by countless communities each year. How do we balance the problem with mosquitoes and their illnesses like West Nile Virus‚ with environmental problems caused by the use of a pesticide like Malathion? A risk assessment is then ordered because it helps estimate the probability that an event will occur and lets us set priorities and manage risks in an appropriate way. Genericville

lesser than the production of naturally grown crops. The main reason for this is that these foods have natural resistance towards pests and insects and so not much pesticides and insecticides have to be sprayed on them. This reduces the necessity of exposing genetically modified crops to harmful pesticides and insecticides‚ making these foods free from chemicals and environment friendly as well. These are the main reasons that the genetically modified tomatoes would cause positive effects in the
