What amount of our US foods are genetically modified? Any idea on other countries use of GMO's?
Homework Answers
Answer: Genetic modification can be defined as organisms such as plants, animals or microorganisms whose genetic material i.e. modification in the DNA is performed to obtained better results or outcome. In one of the survey, it has been found that in United States there has been used of genetically modified foods such as 92% of corn, 94% of soybeans, and 94% of cotton produced in the US were genetically modified. Most of the countries are now using genetically modified foods for consumption such as up to 92%. corn is genetically engineered and 94% of soybeans.

P our Bio Foods Inc. offers free genetically modified seeds (GMS) to farmers in developing countries during the first season. Once GMS seeds have been planted one year, it becomes very difficult for the land to be fertile if any other seeds than GMS seeds are used. Therefore, providing free seeds in the first season is a strategic way to A Penetrate the market with introductory pricing. B. Use block or bulk pricing. c. Use price discrimination. op.

Genetics & Society: Genetic Technology: Pick a genetic technology other than genetically modified foods and some application for this technology. What will be the likely benefit or risks involved in this application? Should we use it why or why not? Does the fact that the application involves genetics give some special or unique ethical feature we should be interested in?

3. (11 marks) Answer with reference to the following article. Genetically Modified Foods A gentetically modified (GM) food has had its DNA altered through genetic engineer rather than through conventional breeding. The first commercial GM food was Calgene's Flavr Savr tomato that resisted rotting, which the company claimed would enable it to stay on the vine longer to ripen. It was first marketed in 1994 without any special labeling. Other common GM crops include canola, cotton, rice and sugar cane....

What are genetically modified organisms (GMOs)? Plants have been genetically engineered to contain added nutrients for better human health or pesticide resistance genes to decrease the use of pesticides. Some scientists fear that GMO crops containing added foreign genes may lead to the generation of 'super weeds'. Do you think the pros of GMOs outweigh the cons?
