What are organisms that have their genes altered called?

These organisms would be called mutants.


Did mutants exist in real life?

Mutants do not actually exist, as in aliens from outer space or weird creatures. Mutants as in scientific accidents do exist, though. Certainly they do. Albinism, for example, is a mutation that occurs in many species. However, if you're asking "Do mutants as depicted in X-whatever exist" then the answer is of course they don't. Many mutations are fatal (and by fatal, I mean the organism with the mutations doesn't even live long enough to be born or hatched or whatever), and almost all mutations are detrimental or at best indifferent. Some mutations are beneficial, such as a moth having a color slightly closer to tree bark and therefore being harder for predators to spot... but these are a) exceedingly rare and b) typically tiny, tiny changes in existing abilities, not "can control magnetism."


When two mutents have the same phenotype vcross would b when to morton's have the same phenotypwere crossed the progeny obtained showed wild type phenotype. thus the mutations are?

When two mutants with the same phenotype are crossed and the progeny exhibit a wild-type phenotype, it suggests that the mutations are likely in the same gene and are recessive. This means that both parental mutants are homozygous for the same recessive allele, and when combined, they produce offspring with the dominant wild-type phenotype. Therefore, the mutations are allelic to each other.


How are plants made resistant to pests?

The different methods of plant breeding for disease resistance includes seed selection, pedigree selection,recurrent selection,use of natural or artificial induced mutants etc.
