No, fruits without seeds are not necessarily genetically modified. Some fruits naturally develop without seeds through a process called parthenocarpy, which can occur in certain plant species.

Are seedless grapes genetically modified organisms (GMOs)?

No, seedless grapes are not considered genetically modified organisms (GMOs). They are produced through traditional breeding methods to create varieties that do not produce seeds.


What does Biotechnology raises ethical questions primarily concerning the?

use of genetic engineering in creating genetically modified organisms, the ownership and control of genetically modified seeds and crops, and the potential social impacts of biotechnological advancements on individuals and communities.


Why do scientists create genetically modified crops?

Genetically modified crops are made in order to make a desired trait, such as high yield, disease resistance, large fruit etc. more pronounced and/or undesired traits, such as toxins and large seeds...


Is pollen haploid or diploid?

Fruits are diploids. Some fruits, like the bananas that we eat (not wild bananas) are triploids. This is to eliminate the seeds (hence why commercial bananas don't have seeds) Fruits that have seeds must have an even number of chromosomal pairs (2, 4, 6) to reproduce. Fruits that don't have seeds are genetically engineered and cannot be reproduced because the number of chromosomes can't evenly split during meiosis.


The seeds of deciduous trees form in?

The seeds of deciduous trees form inside structures called fruits. These fruits develop from the flowers of the tree and protect the seeds as they mature. When the seeds are ready, the fruits open or fall to the ground, allowing the seeds to disperse and potentially germinate.

Can you grow organic seeds with genetically modified seeds?

Yes you can. A seed is considered organic if it is grown without the use of chemicals.

What is GMO in foods?

A GMO food is one that has been genetically modified by removing a gene from one species and forcing it into the seeds of another species in a lab.

How are genetically modified organics good?

There is actually no such thing as genetically modified organics. Organic foods cannot be grown from GMO seeds and the only way it would (and does) contain GMOs is if it is contaminated with them during growth or processing.

Is a seedless a fruit or vegetable?

Fruits have seeds. Vegetables don't. It is still a fruit because it has seeds in its natural state before it was genetically altered by man ............ sheesh


How does herbal medicine tie into biotechnology?

It does not if the the seeds have not been genetically modified and no cross pollination with genetically modified herbs occurs. To this date (February 21, 2012) it appears that no interest has been shown by companies who bio-engineer foods to genetically modify herbs. The interest seems to be focused on vegetables (corn and soybeans in particular) and trees (Papayas grown in Hawaii and other places), though other kinds of plants have also been genetically modified.

What fruit has no seeds in it?

There aren't any fruits without seeds. If it didn't have seeds, it wouldn't be a fruit. You might think bananas don't have seeds but they have seeds.

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.
