(GMOs) can be defined as organisms (i.e. plants, animals or microorganisms) in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally by mating and/or natural recombination.]]> 2020-11-20 19:24:26 UTC https://padlet.com/1261174/34ffqd8lltwhpk4u/wish/946781566 1261174 https://padlet.com/1261174/34ffqd8lltwhpk4u/wish/946790143 GM is a technology that involves inserting DNA into the genome of an organism. To produce a GM plant, new DNA is transferred into plant cells. Usually, the cells are then grown in tissue culture where they develop into plants. The seeds produced by these plants will inherit the new DNA.]]> 2020-11-20 19:26:26 UTC https://padlet.com/1261174/34ffqd8lltwhpk4u/wish/946790143 1261174 https://padlet.com/1261174/34ffqd8lltwhpk4u/wish/946805351 AquAdvantage salmon was modified in 1989. It was done to make salmon grow faster for the market. It plays a normal role in the environment but the modified salmon grows much faster than the regular salmon.

This modification benefits market and people who sell fish. When salmon is not modified it takes it 3 years to grow and when modified it takes him/her 16 to 18 months to grow. ]]> 2020-11-20 19:33:31 UTC https://padlet.com/1261174/34ffqd8lltwhpk4u/wish/946819327 1261174 https://padlet.com/1261174/34ffqd8lltwhpk4u/wish/946839451 Risks
It might be harmful to humans and the environment.
A concern with genetic engineering is that another gene other than the one intended may also be accidentally edited and that can cause really bad results.
Benefits
It gives faster developed food, and can be used to modify other organisms. 
It also gives more resources to the markets and the sellers.
