This was also proven to be a danger for humans as widespread use of antibiotics results in breading super pathogens (drug resistant bacteria).Besides antibiotics there are also other toxic substances which are used to feed the animals on these farms. These toxins may be contaminated in animal tissues and they create the risk for people who consume them. There are also indirect

Situation’ paradigm (see above) revealed three distinct forms of attachment (‘attachment styles’). One secure attachment style and two types of insecure attachments. Ainsworth (1970) identified three main attachment styles‚ secure‚ avoidant and resistant/ambivalent. She concluded that these attachment styles were the result of early interactions with the mother.

Yet with the aid of GMOs crops can be made more weather resistant. Meaning they can handle extreme cold and hot temperatures. GMOs can also be made to last longer. For example recently a tomato has been created which it can last up to forty-five days without expiring. Drum wheat is commonly used in cereals‚ but

GM crops are also able to stay fresh longer. An example is the pest-resistant corn the was created by inserting Bt into the corn plant. Bt is a natural pesticide and a Bt corn will be pest resistant. With fewer food crops damaged‚ the people will then have more food to consume which help solves the
