What are Genetically Modified Organisms?
are a result of technology that has altered the DNA of living organisms (animals, plants or bacteria)
Other terms for GMOs: Genetically engineered Transgenic Recombinant DNA (rDNA)
technology

Why are GMOs produced?
to enhance growth and/or efficiency
of food conversion.
to modify behaviour, e.g.
aggression.
to enhance commercially
significant flesh characteristics.
to control reproductive
activity and/or sexual phenotype.
to increase resistance of
species to pathogens.
to increase tolerance to/of environmental
variables such as temperature.

• It is a patented brand of genetically modified (GM) fluorescent zebrafish with bright red, green, and orange fluorescent color.
• Can detect pollution by selectively fluorescing in the presence of environmental toxins.

Examples of GMOs
• A genetically engineered pig approved for limited production which produces 65 percent less phosphorous in animal waste thus very environmental friendly.

• a cross between a lion and a dog.
• is probably the most remarkable example of how far science is able to go with modern DNA and cross fertilization techniques.

• a miniature pine tree which is a mere 2cm tall when fully grown.
• originally developed to provide
a fast growing source for pine-tree smell to be used in the fragrance industry but in very little time its usefulness in other areas became obvious.

• Genes from Bt was inserted into the crop to make them capable of producing an insecticidal toxin and therefore resistant to certain pests.
• Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a soil bacterium that produces insecticidal toxins.

Examples of GMOs
Golden Rice
• produced through genetic engineering to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of rice.• Golden Rice is being developed as a potential new food-based approach to improve vitamin A status.

About the Proponent:Name: Raquel P. CalawenAge: 17 years old
Hi everyone! By the way, I’m a BS Accountancy student here in UC. I like editing videos and creating presentations. I can sing and dance. I have a high-time in joining debate competitions because I enjoy argumentation.
That’s all for my video. I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks!
