Question

Research about a GMO. Explain the process (or the science) on how was it developed. Don't forget to identify the toolkit used in the process.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Genetically modified organisms (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.

Foods produced from or using GM organisms are often referred to as GM foods.

Answer 2

For thousands of years, humans have been using traditional modification methods like selective breeding and cross-breeding to breed plants and animals with more desirable traits. For example, early farmers developed cross-breeding methods to grow corn with a range of colors, sizes, and uses. Today’s strawberries are a cross between a strawberry species native to North America and a strawberry species native to South America.

Most of the foods we eat today were created through traditional breeding methods. But changing plants and animals through traditional breeding can take a long time, and it is difficult to make very specific changes. After scientists developed genetic engineering in the 1970s, they were able to make similar changes in a more specific way and in a shorter amount of time.

GMO” (genetically modified organism) has become the common term consumers and popular media use to describe foods that have been created through genetic engineering. Genetic engineering is a process that involves:

Identifying the genetic information—or “gene”—that gives an organism (plant, animal, or microorganism) a desired trait

Copying that information from the organism that has the trait

Inserting that information into the DNA of another organism

Then growing the new organism
