Did you know that some of the plants you eat are genetically modified? It’s true! In my opinion, it’s an exceptionally promising idea! Here, let me show you.
According to the text, “The History of Farming” By Eli Baxter, “Some genetically modified seeds produce crops that resist viruses, and pesticides.” I bet your thinking, “Won’t it be dangers?” Well, according to the text, “GMO, what does that mean?” By Sadie Marsh, “current studies from the National Institute of health show there aren't any health risks from consuming the product grown from genetically modified seeds.” That’s good!
Now, you might be wondering how scientists genetically change seeds. Guess what? They use the seeds DNA! Genetically modifying plants started in 1972. According to the text, “ The History of Farming” “seeds that are genetically modified have had changes on a genetic level. Scientists use the DNA of plants to change them through cross-pollination and other technologies.”
