What is genetic material contained in an individual?
nowadays there is a lot of genetic material in people because many of the foods and fruits are genetically made.
Why have scientist used genetic modification on fruits and vegtables?
There are many impacts resulting from genetic modification of fruits and vegetables. Presently science can do this by splicing in new genes or excising od genes. In the past farmers could only observe natural mutations and selectively breed for superior traits. In effect all modern food id genetically modified either by breeding or by diect manipulation of the genes.The impacts of natural or modern gene manipulation include:Resistance to diseaseResistance to pestsIncreased yieldReduced need for nutrients and waterIncreased resistance to frost etc.Improved shelf life when pickedImprove taste and appearance
Which plant parts do scientists use to classify plants?
Mainly floral parts.
Can you build DNA?
From humans, no. But sometimes, don't you wish life was like "men in black"? From fruits however, Yes it is called Genetic Modification So it is actually possible to inject kiwi DNA into a strawberry plants main stem and create a new fruit! Hope This Helps!
Why do scientists consider fruits to be a plants ovary?
A fruit is literally the enlarged ovary of a plant. The ovary is an organ in female or bisexual flowers where the egg cell(s) is(are) stored and fertilized by the sperm in the pollen that finds its way to the flower. When the egg is fertilized it grows into a seed and the ovary around the seed grows into a form that provides protection and transporation for the seeds. There are a lot of different kinds of fruits, too, that you might not realize are fruits. You should try searching "fruit types" in google images to get an idea of all the different ways fruits can grow.
Why have scientists used genetic modification on fruits and vegetables?
To make them taste better and improve their freshness. Plants that have genetic modifications tends to have better chance of surviving and the product tends to be better than the original. However, some people think genetic modifications are wrong because the food hasn't been tested fully and may harm humans since the food isn't natural; there is little evidence to prove this.
Do organic fruits go bad before nonorganic fruits?
Yes, organic fruits can go bad before non-organic fruits since they lack genetic modifications and preservatives.

What would we humans do if we didn't have food scientists?
we'd be eating our fruits and vegies
What is a example of a genetically modified food and how is it created?
Genetically modified foods are actually quite common today. They are created by farmers using selective cross breeding and by scientists manipulating the food's genetic code. Common examples of this type of food are seedless fruits.
How do scientists grow fruits without seeds?
fruits grow by seeds but you have to buy the seeds and you need to get fruit seeds so they will grow in your garden and if you want to know where seeds come from some come from wheat sunflowers apple mango and peach but only sometimes your answer is done bye bye.they grow by planting a seed and then keep it in the sunlight
Is mango have the largest area under fruits in India?
mango has the maximum genetic species inn India.
Which plant parts do scientists use to classify plants?
Mainly floral parts.
Why fruit seller don't sprinkle water on fruits but a vegetable seller do the same?
because fruit contai some genetic material and which did not want water
How are seedless fruit brought into existence?
Seedless fruit are most commonly created by not fertilizing a plant. Some seedless fruits exist because of a genetic mutation.
Are there any other fruits like Miracle fruits For example Miracle berries change the perception of taste making everything sour taste sweet.Aany other fruits with weird effects similar to this?
Scientists have engineered a type of lettuce with this affect. two grams of the lettuce has the same affect as one miracle berry.
