How can genetically modified organism help the environment?
By reducing the need for herbicides and insecticides. Also by increasing yields, thus allowing the same amount of production on smaller acreage, thereby decreasing deforestation.
What are the characteristics of this genetically modified organism?
Bt cotton is an example of genetically modified organism.
How was genetically modified food created?
Genetically modified food is created in a lab by removing a gene from one organism and forcing it into an organism of a different species.
Why are genetically modified organism beneficial?
Genetically modified organisms are modified on a genetic level to benefit humans. How this can pose a threat to a population or ecosystem, is that if the genetically modified organism were to somehow create a mutation, and pass that on, it could be damaging to the future generations in reducing their health or other issues may arise. It can also be damaging to an ecosystem if a genetically modified organism were to escape into a wild population and change it.
What does GMO stand for?
GMO stands for a Genetically Modified Organism.
What is GMO genetically modified organisms?
A genetically modified organism results from a gene being removed from one organism and artificially inserted into an organism of a totally different species. This is a simplified explanation and the process is done in a lab.
How do Schneider and Schneider define genetically modified foods?
They explain what a genetically modified food is this way: "A genetically modified (GM) food or genetically modified organism (GMO) results from the use of recombinant DNA biotechnological procedures that allow the genetic makeup of a food or organism to be altered in some way. This 'recombination' can be accomplished by moving genes from one organism to another or by changing genes in an organism that are already present. These changes result in the expression of attributes not found in the original organism."
What organism's DNA was insterted into the first genetically modified primate?

What does the abbreviation GMO stand for?

What is another name of transgenic organism?
Genetically modified organism or GMO is another name for a transgenic organism.
What is an example of a genetically engineered organism?
1. Recombinant DNA - takes bacteria away to make insulin 2. Use of Mutagenic agents (things that cause changes) - radiation, ultra violet light, chemicals 3. Selective Breeding (choose organism you are mating) - hybridization
