Corn has been genetically engineered to produce the anti-insect poison of a bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. What is one benefit of this? What are some of the risks?
Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are used to create human growth hormone, insulin and clotting factor proteins that are used to treat dwarfism, diabetes and hemophilia respectively. Several crops such as corn and soybean have also been genetically modified in order to facilitate either the management or growth of these crops. Why do you think there is push back or opposition against the use of GM food crops but not in the use of products such as insulin, which is also created using GMOs?
What makes the species of Agrobacterium ideal for genetic engineering? Describe its characteristics and its role in producing transgenic plants.
Due to the rapid increase in the world population one of the main issues that face developing countries is that of food production. do you think these technologies (Genetically modified Canola, the Canada-based Micronutrient Initiative, Flour Fortification, Initiative.) will help?
How are we going to feed and clothe the rapidly rising human population worldwide? How are we going to stop famine and crop loss? These are some very important questions biologists are working on as the world changes and problems arise. One possible solution could be the increased use of technology to improve food crops. These crops often have foreign DNA inserted into them that produces a protein product, such as herbicide resistance, to protect the plant or increase yield. They are termed GMO's (Genetically Modified Organisms) and they are hotly debated in both science and the public sphere. In this discussion you will demonstrate an understanding of GMOs and reflect on the pros and cons of their development and use This week's discussion involves 1 part. In this discussion, pick a side, PRO or CON, and argue your case that GMO's are either going to save the world or destroy it. You may very well find that this issue is not as black and white as it is made out to be! Please remember…

A biologist is studying a disease in corn that seems to be more common in cornfields in warmer weather. He is using three genotypes of corn and growing them in greenhouses under different temperatures (each genotype is grown under all temperatures) and measuring susceptibility to the disease. Draw a diagram with norms of reaction showing that the three genotypes respond differently to temperature in terms of disease susceptibility.
Miracle RiceRice is staple food in Asia. In the 1950s, Asia faced food shortage and an impending famine. If you have relatives that lived in Asia during the ’50s and ’60s, they may tell you that due to the rice shortage, many starved and those who were lucky had to supplement their diet with other crops, such as barley. In 1962, an organization focused on research and development of rice called International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) developed a high-yielding variety of rice by crossing the two types of rice from Indonesia and China. The result was ground breaking. The new variety called IR8 (India Rice 8) increased its yield as much as 10 times the traditional variety of rice. By the early 1970s, many rice farmers in India, the Philippines, and Vietnam switched to cultivating IR8 rice, making these countries into major rice exporters, preventing a mass famine in Asia, and saving millions of lives. 1) Is the IR8 rice variety considered a genetically modified organism (GMO)? Why or…

Certain genetically modified tomatoes were designed to suppress (reduce the effectiveness) the enzyme polygalactias which delays ripening. How does this gene modification affect the consumer and the diet of individuals in developing countries? options: Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes have a longer shelf life. The tomatoes survive delivery to the consumer and provide nutritional value to more people. Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes can stay on the vine longer to receive nutrients. Once picked, these tomatoes will ripen rapidly to provide a full taste to the consumer. Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes are more likely to freeze on the vine before becoming ripe. This freezing process locks in the minerals and beneficial nutrients so that the tomato can be transported without losing its nutritional benefit. Delaying the ripening process means that the tomatoes are more likely to have a shorter shelf…
