Sometimes genetic modification is used for protecting crop from bugs, infectious deceases, and feeding the hungry.  ]]> 2017-03-02 19:22:23 UTC https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157454460 gracetempleton2022 https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157456912 the process by which forms of life having traits that better them to adapt to specific environmental pressures, as predators, changes in climate, or competition for food or mates, will tend to survive and reproduce in larger numbers than others of their kind, plus of those favorable traits in succeeding generations. ]]> 2017-03-02 19:29:02 UTC https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157456912 gracetempleton2022 https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157460361 What I go out of this article was that genetic alteration isn't bad. It said "Likewise, most animal studies suggest that GMOs are safe" and they also said "To date, there is no evidence suggesting that GMOs cause harm in humans". So this leads me to think that genetic moderation isn't such a horrible thing. ]]> 2017-03-02 19:39:18 UTC https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157460361 gracetempleton2022 https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157464179 What I got out of this article was that there are some bad things about it and some good. The bad were allergic or toxic reactions mostly. The article said "It has been estimated that 70% of all processed foods in the United States contain at least one genetically modified ingredient". That is a big number. So that could be hard for some people with allergies or toxic reactions. ]]> 2017-03-02 19:49:35 UTC https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157464179 gracetempleton2022 https://padlet.com/gracetempleton2022/4cagxlpjkjj5/wish/157716048 What I got out of this article was that genetically altered food is good. The article said "corn is the most important and widely grown grain in the United States. However, corn cannot reproduce without human aid. Corn is also vulnerable to many pests and diseases, and corn requires a lot of nutrients. Bigger yields to create more efficient use of land, less uses of herbicides and other pesticides.Foods with better texture, flavor and nutritional value.Foods with a longer shelf life for easier shipping.Finally, GM foods can create an essential sustainable way to feed the world. This shows that overall gentialty altered food is really good for the world.
