Issues – Genetically Modified Foods Genetically modifying foods might seem very unorthodox with the changing of traits and genes within the foods‚ but genetically modifying foods does not hurt the consumer in any way. Earlier in the 1990’s‚ genetically modified foods were announced by the Food and Drug Administration to not be “inherently dangerous”. However‚ when a type of transgenic corn was pulled from the market when it was mistakenly entered into the open food supply in 2000 that was not fit

Genetically Modified Crops The evolution of Genetically Modified crops (GM) has‚ for the first time in history‚ presented us with a solution to the problem of global hunger. The world’s population has almost reached 7 billion people and is growing exponentially.This raises the question: how can we supply food to so many people nutritiously and affordably while protecting and preserving the environment?Genetically Modified (GM) crops are created for human or animal consumption using the latest molecular

By Wendy Du GM Foods as a possible solution for world hungry 1. Introduction Genetically modified foods are foods derived from genetically modified organisms (GMOS). GMOS have had particular turns led to their DNA by genetic engineering techniques.In fact‚GM foods are already becoming a part of our life.(Maessen‚ 1997) The 2010 estimate‚ the most recent‚ says that 925 million people were undernourished in 2010 (FAO 2010). There are clearly some very real issues that need

Nowadays‚ most of people in the world are extremely busy. Thus‚ It’s no secret‚ that people don’t have time to cook at home. That’s why people prefer to eat foods that are easily cooked or ready

FOOD CHAINS and FOOD WEBS There are two types of feeding relationships: autotrophic and heterotrophic. Autotrophic organisms make their own food by the process of photosynthesis e.g. plants. Heterotrophic organisms cannot make their own food (i.e. cannot carry out photosynthesis)‚ therefore must eat other organisms to get their nutrients e.g. animals. A food chain is the feeding relationship among organisms or the series of living organisms that eat each other. A food chain shows the transfer
