such as climate change‚ exponential population growth‚ and the struggle to find arable lands. Societies have always produced GMOs (genetically modified organisms) to increase the occurrence of desired traits with methods such as selection‚ cross-pollination‚ and hybridization. However‚ the new technology‚ genetic engineering‚ the process of rearranging genes is saturating the GMO conversation. Still‚ the genetic engineering in medical applications‚ such as insulin is largely accepted. However‚ the

These foods may look delicious‚ but would you believe me if I told you all of the food you were consuming was made in a laboratory? These foods are called GMOs‚ genetically modified organisms. The United States Department of Agriculture defines a GMO as an organism that is produced through genetic modification. Scientists change the DNA sequence of organisms to

Lights attract insects‚ which may in turn interfere with pollination of nocturnal flowers. Health effects of over-illumination or improper spectral composition of light may include: increased headache incidence‚ worker fatigue‚ medically defined stress and increase in anxiety. Light pollution can prevent the production

Are GMO’s the Future of Food? To some‚ “Genetically Modified” is synonymous with “dangerous” and “unnatural” to others Genetically Modified Organisms can mean the difference between eating or starving‚ and can mean saving thousands of dollars in crop losses. GMO’s can help farmers grow more food on less land and can help farmers in the developing world grow a sustenance crop to support and feed their families. Those who view GMO’s as a danger to themselves and their children usually don’t fully

Abstract: This experiment‚ which was used to explore the Theory of Evolution created by Charles Darwin. The use of natural selection was apparent in the artificial modification of an organism’s traits which aided in this investigation. Through this experiment the Wisconsin Fast Plant was used. It is a fast-growing organism developed to improve the resistance to disease in cruciferous plants. This plant aids scientist in the exploration of environmental effects on population due to the speed to

Over time and continued cross-pollination of more and more draught-tolerant plants‚ that rainforest plant can "learn" to survive in conditions that are much different than its native lands. This intentional cross-pollination can apply to any characteristic of the plant... from draught-resistance to flower color‚ fruit flavor and root depth. Plant growing needs: External Factors
