DNA is transferred from a complex organism (human) into a simpler one (bacterium). The 2 new pieces of combined DNA are called recombinant DNA.
It depends on how they are genetically engineered. The possibilities are almost endless (given time to research the idea) but there are 2 genetic modifications that seem to be most common. Making a crop easier to grow in harsher climates, or causing the crop to grow faster. There are also drawbacks, such as many genetically engineered crops having lower nutritional value, but scientists are constantly working on overcomming these problems, and most of the genetically engineered crops used today are free of these problems.
Not at all. There are many foods that you eat that have been genetically engineered to produce something better or faster than before.

Genetically engineered food is food that has been modified using biotechnology to introduce specific traits or characteristics, such as resistance to pests or improved nutrient content. This process involves altering the genetic makeup of the plant or animal to achieve desired results.
yes they can but only when you aren't born yet because when you aren't born yet scientists may inject bird DNA into you so that when your born u will have hallow bones and wings just like a bird but your wing span will be huge
not really. they do however label genetically engineered produce.

As of recent estimates, about 70-80% of processed foods in the U.S. contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in some form. Globally, the percentage of GMO products varies by region and type of crop, with significant use in major crops like soybeans, corn, and cotton. However, the overall percentage of the world's total food products that are genetically modified is lower, as many fresh produce items and whole foods are not genetically engineered.
Nearly every company uses "genetically modified organisms" in their products, because nearly everything we raise for food today has been bred so that it's quite different from its wild ancestors ... its genetics have been modified.
Genetically engineered proteins are important to many areas of human life such as agriculture, research, medicine and industry. Research is especially necessary for the possible cure of diseases that threaten every culture on Earth. Pharmaceutical companies can utilize the insulin and vaccines so necessary in developing countries.
That is because many vegetables are genetically engineered. eg. BT cotton. Or seedless fruits. Also as different types of soil and climatic conditions can be maintained in different regions, variety is more.
Engineered products are products designed to meet a particular design criteria. Non-engineered products are products that were not specifically engineered for a particular design criteria. The structural wood products industry is a good example of engnieered and non-engineered products. Lumber and heavy timbers are good examples of non-engineered materials that are used in construction. Specifically, lumber or timber is a product that is cut from logs. Lumber is not designed, although we test lumber and have design values that apply to many types of lumber. There exists natural variation in lumber so the way we come up with reasonable design values is test a reasonable size sample of lumber, determine the statistical variation of the test results, then assign a conservative material value to allow it to be used structurally. In contrast, plywood, OSB, I-joists, laminated veneered lumber, parallel strand lumber and glulam are engineered wood products. Those products were designed to be used in certain structural applications. The design of the products was thought out, typically combining a mixture of different smaller layers or materials, combined with structural connectors, typically adhesives, or small nails or screws. These products often use the best properties of the individual products to come up with a better mix. These products often have a higher strength to weight ratio when compared with non-engineered products. Other engineered products include rolled steel shapes, bar-joists, metal decking, reinforced concrete, plastics, composites and fibers. I hope this has been helpful.
One common GMO that many people consume regularly is corn, which is often found in products like corn syrup, tortillas, and snack foods. Genetically modified corn is engineered for traits like pest resistance and increased yield. Additionally, soybeans are another prevalent GMO, used in various products such as oils, tofu, and processed foods. These ingredients are staples in many diets around the world.
Products made from steel bars include many precision-engineered components that power automobiles
