Genetically modified food would allow scientists to control the nutrients that exist within the fruit, therefore allowing accurate consumption of all elements. This would be beneficial for those in Less Economically Developed Countries as one source of food will supply them with many nutrients.

Does Genetically modified food help strike hunger?
in some ways yes but not if your used to eating normal everyday food in life
What is the impact genetically modified food has on evolution?
[1] Genetically modified organisms can affect plant diversity. As with non-genetically modified plants, their seeds are easily spread by wild life and wind. Consequently, they contaminate non-genetically modified food products that are grown within the reach of air and critters. For their genetics tend to dominate over the genetics of non-genetically modified plants. [2] They also can affect individual plant responses. For the individual plant's genetics have been altered. And researchers don't yet have the complete map to the consequences, or plant responses to these consequences. It's a work in progress. And researchers as much as their plant subjects are making up the rules as they go along.
Are Spartans from halo clones?
No. Spartans are genetically modified humans that have trained their whole life to be soldiers.
What are five examples of science breakthroughs and how each has changed man's life?
It might be tough to pick the top five but any five would be easy because the choice is endless. This is a great article about one person's top five Vaccinations, Genetically Modified Food, the Integrated Circuit, the Microscope, Radio.
How has life changed based on food technology?
life has changed because there is diffrent foods because on the food technlogy... vsbg
Should people continue to use genetically modified foods?
This is not an easily answerable question. Genetically modified foods are more common than one thinks. Some genetic manipulation is essential to enable different food harvests to grow where they normally do not thrive. They can also help save a particular plant life from effects of a blight. Some genetic manipulation is done to provide more growth, or higher food output by the source (i.e. milk cows, or giving chickens growth hormones to make them larger). By and large, in order to answer this question requires a little homework on the part of the consumer. Find out if the food products you consume are genetically altered, then research that alteration to see how it was altered and what, if any, effect it has on the consumer as well as the quality of life for the consumed.
How has science improved your life in the field of agriculture?
Food yield have grow exponentially as cyclical farming let more land be used more often, terraforming and irrigation turned inhospitable area into food growing regions, Genetically modified foods are more Resistance to disease and give bigger yields.
Were can you find a genetically modified spider that would give you Spider-Man powers?
america becareful though may kill the life out of u it might give u pwers
What does Genetically Modified mean?
Gene splicing or hybrid species are both genetically modified. *That is true, but there are two distinct kinds of genetic modification. Hybrids are modified by crossing one variety with another within the same species. For example, a Rutgers tomato is crossed with a Big Boy tomato to make a better variety of tomato. Another form of genetic modification is called bioengineering. Unlike hybrids, this type of genetic modification is done by splicing genes from one species into those of an entirely different species. This type of gene splicing has been done to certain vegetables since, I believe, the 1970s. An example is bacteria or virus genes that have been spliced into corn. This type of modification has been done with tomatoes, soybeans, potatoes, and other vegetables, as well as some varieties of trees. From what I have read, the goal is not to make a better variety, but to make the variety more tolerant of chemicals or, in the case of trees, to make their structure weaker to make them more suitable for paper-making. An organic grower most often uses heirloom varieties that have not been genetically modified, either by hybridization or bioengineering. In fact, most of the organic growers I know are vehemently opposed to any kind of bioengineered organisms and have organized to oppose such practices.When something is modified by genetics, it means that it has been altered on a genetic level. Everything is made up of genes, including us. Some foods are altered genetically to help it be resistant to diseases.
Do all DNA descend from DNA in the earliest forms of life?
Yes. Our DNA has been passed on and changed/modified since the earliest forms of life.
Why must you study cells?
Cells are the basic structural and functional unit of life. These microscopic compartment-like structures carry out all life processes. If we study them and unveil maximum secrets about them, we will be more informed about life. Science demands more and more information about life and its origin. Life on Earth started with a cell so to know more about a much debated discussion, it is important to study cells. The cure of most diseases lie within a cell hence biotechnology is important. Diseases like obesity, Alzheimer's are finding their cure in cells. Even cures for cancer is in cells. Insertion of genes in food or GMO ( Genetically Modified Organism ) is making food more specialized in giving advantages. For example : rice on being genetically modified will reduce drowsiness.
How are crop plants improved by scientests?
Scientists have helped with the advancements of plant breeding. They have helped isolate the desirable crop traits to improve plants. Genetically modified crops have improved nutrition and shelf life.
