[1] Corn to which the naturally occurring bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis has been transferred. Bt corn thereby has crystal proteins that are lethal to corn borers and corn earworms. [2] Potatoes genetically modified for higher starch contents. [3] Potatoes and tomatoes to which the antifreeze genes of cold water fish have been transferred. Seedlings thereby have better responses, and show better survival rates, to cold temperatures. [3] Rice that has been genetically modified, to contain beta-carotene and more iron. [4] Soybeans that have been genetically modified so as not to be affected by Roundup. The weedkiller thereby needs to be applied once, not several times.
Some GMO crops are genetically engineered to produce a substance that kills insects when they is eaten by them. It is for that reason that some GMO crops are classified as pesticides by the EPA.
the three examples of classification of technology ! are biotechnology , gmo (genetically modified organisms ) and bioremediation ...
yes in some ways
GMO stands for genetically modified organism. To confirm the GMO status of the sample, it must be labeled as GMO by the producers.
If you are a farmer, you know the corn you are gowing is GMO because you buy seeds that are known to be GMO. If you are gowing non-GMO varieties, you do not know if GMO vaieties have cross pollinated with your corn unless you get it tested. If you are a consumer, you do not know if the corn or processed foods containing corn is GMO unless it is labeled as such. In the United States GMO foods are not labeled.

The effects of GMO food is not yet known. Though some say there are no harmful effects, others question that and claim there is anecdotal evidence that GMO foods are harmful to health.
Some believe GMO foods are no different than natural foods. Others believe people should not eat GMO foods because they are not the same as natural foods and they are net yet proven not to be harmful.
Some people believe GMO foods are equivalent to non-GMO foods and are safe to eat. Others question if either is true.

Genetically modified organisms are living things that have had their DNA altered in some way using genetic engineering.http://www.livescience.com/40895-gmo-facts.html
Some refer to GMO foods as "frankenfoods."
yes in some ways
GMO foods asummably have the same vitamins as the equivalent non-GMO foods.
Yes of course. They import goods from us for one thing and we allow gmo foods in supermarkets.
