Introduction In this experiment, we will be examining genetic inheritance and the transfer of traits such as performed in the experiment done by Gregor Mendel with his garden peas. However, unlike Mendel, we will be using Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) nematodes instead of garden peas. C. elegans are worms measuring at around 1mm and consume E. coli and other microorganisms...

Lack of food and the destruction of our environment are two of the most prominent world problems. We as a species often worry about the future of ourselves and our surroundings, but we do not always have the technology to solve these issues. These problems arise and only worsen over time without any real option for success. However, GMOs are...

Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods produced from animals or plants whose genetic material (DNA) has been modified. For example, by the insertion of a gene from another organism, in a fashion that does not occur normally. Combining genes from different organisms is known as ‘recombinant DNA technology’, while the resulting organism is claimed to be 'genetically modified', or 'genetically...

Genetically modified soy has become increasingly popular among food distributors all over the world. In fact, soy is the most genetically modified product on the planet, causing most soybeans we purchase and consume to be genetically modified organisms. These legumes are mainly cultivated as they are high in protein and oils. Since soy is a popular food item, they have...

Genetically modified foods (GMFs) are foods that have been deliberately modified in order to create healthier and more beneficial crops for both the farmers and the society. The purpose of this report is to draw a justified conclusion about whether we should continue to produce genetically altered foods, focusing particularly on corn. Both the benefits and issues associated with this...

Genetically modified food might be everywhere in our supermarkets and restaurants. Most of us probably have no idea how much of it we’re eating — or how much it’s affecting our health. In the past two decades, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have completely infiltrated farm fields, grocery stores and kitchens — so much so that most people can’t say with...

Introduction Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) have become a focal point of scientific and public discourse in recent decades. With the advent of biotechnological advancements, GMOs promise enhanced agricultural productivity, resilience against pests and diseases, and improved nutritional profiles. However, the integration of GMOs into food systems and ecosystems raises numerous ethical, environmental, and health-related concerns. My personal position on GMOs...

Introduction to GMO Controversies Unlabeled. Unassuming. Untested ('Genetically Modified Foods'). What’s the truth about genetically modified organisms (GMOs)? Genetically engineered foods have affected the economic and agricultural landscape for the worst. A process which refers to the unnatural transferring of foreign genetic material (DNA) from one organism to another has many concerns. If continued, the future withholds crippling ecosystems, rising...

Genetically engineered organisms could have a massive impact on humans. They can do almost anything. They could solve thousands of problems that plague the human race. Genetically modified organisms will benefit the human race in innumerable ways. They will likely be the cure for cancer, an inevitable food crisis, and the organ crisis. They can produce insulin and will make...

Genetic modification is the area of biotechnology which concerns itself with the manipulation of genetic material in living organisms and enabling them to perform a specific function. New developments leading to modern genetic modification which took place in 1946 where scientists first discovered that genetic material was transferable between different species. Genetically modified yields have been helpful to both the...

Imagine if we could produce crops that do not require any pesticides, grow quicker than normal, and are produced with vital nutrients not previously found in them. This isn’t fantasy, as we already do all of the above through GMOs. According to the World Health Organization, GMOs or genetically modified organisms, are defined as organisms, such as plants, in which...

Food plays an important role in the people’s life because people always need food to eat to get the energy so that they can do the movements, live and work daily. By seeing that food is very important for every life, they try to find modern method, such as genetically modified food, in order to increase both quality and quantity...

Drosophila melanogaster, also referred to as “fruit flies,” are one of the most commonly used test subjects in genetic research. In the early 1900s, Thomas Hunt Morgan found a correlation between chromosomal mutations and heredity using fruit flies (Markow, 2015). Throughout the 20th and into the 21st century, research continued using fruit flies bringing forth notable findings such as genetic...

Rationale Godfrey (2000) in the Lancet claimed that “it is unknown whether the use of genetically modified organisms in agriculture affects human health”. While the article discussed uncertainties of GM foods, it stated the USA has a broad range of modified nourishment already but lacks case study on the affects for those who digest the genetically modified food and those...

The World Food Program estimates that 795 million people worldwide – mostly in the third world - experience hunger. Starvation may worsen in events of global climate-change effects like drought (Effiong & Noor, 2019). Indeed, recent natural disasters in major food-exporting nations in Africa and Asia could aggravate adverse food situation (Qaim & Kouser, 2013). Fortunately, recent scientific discoveries have...

After discussing with relatives who have completed their at-home DNA tests, I have been able to determine where most of my ancestors are from. Interestingly, I am from Seminole, Anglo-Saxon, and Irish descent. Within the Anglo-Saxon culture, a very rare disease known as hemochromatosis (iron build up in the body), is commonly found here. There are two forms of hemochromatosis,...
