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

1 Modified Waterfall Model A Modified Waterfall Model (See Figure 7) from the System Development Life Cycle was used by the proponents in this study. This model involves validation or verification between the phases of the traditional Waterfall Model. This combination enables the early corrections of any deviations in the processes. This model also supports proper development documentation. For that reason‚ the proponents became one-step closer in using the Modified Waterfall Model. This model

The first time Americans became aware that GMO’s were part of their everyday dietwas 2001. 80 – 90% of Americans want GMO labeled. GMO labeling is the key way we can trace health effects and get corporations
