The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the company's application to allow the entry of this GM salmon into the United States food supply late last year. The FDA announced that: "AquAdvantage salmon is as safe to eat as any non- genetically engineered (GE) Atlantic salmon, and also as nutritious." However, opponents of genetically modified food are claiming that the AquAdvantage salmons could pose a serious environmental risk to the marine ecosystem if the engineered fishes escape from the farms. These transgenic salmons would be a big threat to the wild salmons. Justify this statement.arrow_forwardBacteria are the most common GMOs because their simple structure permits easy manipulation of their DNA. This manipulation or genetic modification can be completed by series of steps and processes.

- Okay, maybe GMOs have decent uses but it can't all be good. I've heard all of the following about GMOs. Which ones are realistic concerns? select all that applys a)Some GMO are patented and farmers must buy seeds every year rather than saving them from their crops. b)GMO's cause allergies at a greater rate than crops produced by cross-breeding. c)Inserted genes produce amino acids not found in nature. d)Inserted genes may escape into wild plants near farmed fields.arrow_forwardGenetically modifying seeds to produce herbicide-resistant plants that increase crop yields has revolutionized modern agriculture. However, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have come under fire in recent years, with consumer groups calling for mandatory GMO labeling on all food packages that contain GMO ingredients. GMO labeling laws have been in force in the European Union and other countries for several years, but the threat to the U.S. food industry is only now surfacing. Although bills requiring GMO labeling have been introduced in many state legislatures, Vermont is the only state where such a law has so far withstood the first round of legal battles from the industry. Leading chemical companies, including Monsanto, BASF, and DuPont, are the world’s largest suppliers of seeds that grow the food that feeds the world. To counter the GMO labeling threat, they now are turning to mutagenesis as an alternative technique to create herbicide-resistant crops.
