Transcription de la présentation

  1. Genetically Modified Organisms By Janae Meldrum Glo-Fish

  2. The Science • Extract DNA from both organisms • Expose each organism’s DNA to the same restrictive enzyme • Insert the desired gene from one organism into the DNA of the other organism. • Add ligase to create recombinant DNA.

  3. Should Plants Be Genetically Modified?

  4. What We Can Create • Drought, frost, disease, and herbicide resistant crops • Plants that produce their own insecticides, vitamins, and medicines • Combinations of two different species • Larger plants or crops

  5. Advantages • Decreased hunger in third world countries: hardier plants, increased crop production, higher diversity of foods to eat • Increased health benefits: vitamins and medicines produced from plants, less herbicides and insecticides sprayed

  6. Disadvantages • Much is unknown about this new technology so huge negative impacts could affect the environment and the Earth • Loss of the natural • New allergens or activation of them is possible As well as…

  7. Company Corruption • Seeds that are sterile after only one season so farmers cannot save some of their seed for the next year • Arguments about patents • Monsanto monopoly

  8. Genetic Pollution • Genetically modified organisms may be better suited to living in their environment and could wipe out all natural organisms and plants.

  9. Bt Crops • Bt crops produce their own poisonous insecticide. Such as Bt cotton where the cotton bollworm is killed when it eats the boll capsule of the cotton plant. • Adv: Less insecticide spraying • Disadv: Insects resistant to insecticides, killing a lot of insect species off, reducing animal diversity.

  10. RoundUp Ready Crops • Adv: Farmers can spray herbicide without harming their crops so weeds die and plants get more nutrients. • Disadv: Herbicide still must be used and their ingestion may harm our bodies.
