Response Ayanna Jackson Period 1 5.12.14 Word Count: 743 Genetically modified (GM) foods have been around for thousands of years. In the 1990s‚ they started being sold commercially in the United States‚ which was the start of this controversy: Are GM foods good or bad for us? Do the pros outweigh the cons? In my opinion‚ genetically modified foods are nothing to worry about. GM foods are produced from genetic engineering. Scientists take a certain gene from an organism that is

starvation are three reasons as to why scientists have decided to modify foods. GM foods are a new genetically modified way to "improve" crop production‚ but these new improvements are not as helpful as scientists planned them to be. GM foods should play no role in the global food supply because GM foods have no beneficial role within humans lives. GM foods were supposed to be made to benefit humans lives‚ and help to make more plants to give to the people. Instead of helping the people these notifications

Genetically Modified Food is a blessing. GM food is crops modified to enhance desired traits‚ and promises to meet the demand for food for this booming population in the near future. GM food allows modified crops to be pest-resistant‚ herbicide-tolerant‚ disease-resistant‚ cold-tolerant and drought-tolerant or salinity-tolerant. Pest-resistant crops prevent farmers from incurring huge losses from insect pests. This trait also allows non-usage of chemical pesticides‚ which are typically used in

CAUSE AND EFFECT ON GM FOODS I have selected to research and write about the potential dangers and benefits of genetically modified (GM) foods. Genetically modified foods are produced from organisms that have had specific changes introduced into their DNA using methods of genetic engineering. These techniques have allowed far greater control over food’s genetic structure than past methods like selective breeding. Genetically modified foods were introduced commercially for sale in 1994.

The crumple zone is a structural feature in which can be mostly found in automobiles. They are constructed to absorb the kinetic energy from impact during an accident by controlled deformation. In order to absorb the impact of a head on collision‚ most of the time crumple zones are designed to be in the front part of a vehicle‚ they can also be found on the rear and sides of vehicles. Isaac Newton’s first law states that an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and direction unless

Modified food is a technology that changes the genetic information of living organisms to make them more useful to human. This new technology was created through the combination of different genes from different living organisms. Genetically Modified food could be utilized in medicines‚ vaccines‚ foods‚ and other food ingredients (Genetically Modified Foods and Organisms). However‚ the most significant advantage of GM (Genetically Modified) food is that they contain adequate amounts of all necessary nutrients
