Genetically modified foods are those derived from seeds and plants that contain genetically modified organisms, which have had specific changes introduced by genetic engineering techniques.
Thesis Statement
Through the advancement of biotechnology, genetically modified organisms have been engineered to be more beneficial, available, and efficient.
- Resistances added to the organisms to reduce the use of herbicides and pesticides, benefiting the environment.
- Changes to the genetic makeup of organisms to adhere to climate change and insure organism growth on infertile land and in harsh climates.
- Livestock health and growth efficiency improved when on the genetically engineered feed.
I had prepared a research based presentation for my World Issues high school course (CGW4U) about the benefits of genetically modified foods. I thought that this research presentation would be a great fit for my first blog post. Click the “Download” button below to see the whole presentation (all images and references included).
