Created with Fabric.js 1.4.5 A GMO is an organism whose genome has been altered by the techniques of genetic engineering so that its DNA contains one or more genes not normally found there. Note: A high percentage of food crops, such as corn and soybeans, are genetically modified GMO's Allergic Reaction A GMO is an organism whose genome has been altered by the technique of genetic engineering so that its DNA contain oneor more genes not normally found there. Decreased Nutritional Value Antibiotic resistance A genetically modified plantcould theoretically have lowernutritional quality than its tradition counterpart by making nutrient uavai-lable or indigestible to humans. Eating GM food can change the genetic make up of your digestive system and could put you at risk of infections that areresistant to antibiotics. Allergic reactions in human occur when a normally harm-less protein enters the bodyand stimulated an immune response. In realitic food allergy approximately5% of children and 2% of adults in theU.S. and is a significant public health threat (Bakshi, 2003). An inserted gene could cause a plant to product higher levelsof phytate decreasing the mineralnutritional value of the plant. 70% percent of processed foods on U.S.grocery store sheleves have genetically modified ingredients. Pre-made soups can contain a large number of ingredientscontaining GMOs. we learn about genetic, DNA, and GMO, which is the genetic modified organism
