Read the paragraph that follows on a particular GMO. Make a tabulation of its use's positive and negative consequences as well as ethical issues. Landmines in many countries worldwide remind us of dreadful wars in the past and these too still prey on innocent lives who accidentally step on them. There is an interesting research however on a genetically modified plant species, Arabidopsis thaliana which detects the presence of land mines through changing colors. In a particular study, a gene that turns-on the production of the red pigment, anthocyanin in the presence of nitrogen dioxide has been inserted in the genome of thale cress (A. thaliana). As the modified plant already renders a sensitivity to the presence of nitrogen dioxide gas, in areas where unexploded landmines exist, the leaves of these plants turn from green to red, signaling the presence of nitrogen oxide gases released by these buried bombs (Nelson, 2004).

1a.) Please take a position for-or-against genetically modified agricultural products. 1b.) Be sure to include what are the potential benefits or risks of genetically modified foods.

A. Hank is going to talk about Gene Guns and Agrobacterium which I will discuss in a video lecture next week. B. How long does it take to develop and bring a GMO crop to market? C. What are some of the drawbacks to GE organisms? D.One of the interviewees is a woman in bright pink t-shirt and she is trying to describe drawbacks to GMOs. While not a cogent argument, I think there is an important point that she is trying to make. Do you know what she is trying to say?

Bruce Ames and his colleagues have pointed out that although detailed toxicological analysis has been conducted on synthetic chemicals, almost no information is available about the mutagenic or carcinogenic effects of the toxins produced by plants as a natural defense against fungi, insects, and animal predators. Tens of thousands of such compounds have been discovered, and he estimates that in the United States adults eat about 1.5 g of these compounds each daylevels that are approximately 10,000 times higher than those of the synthetic pesticides present in the diet. For example, cabbage contains 49 natural pesticides and metabolites, and only a few of these have been tested for their carcinogenic and mutagenic effects. a. With the introduction of new foods into the U.S. diet over the last 200 years (mangoes, kiwi fruit, tomatoes, and so forth), has there been enough time for humans to develop resistance to the mutagenic effects of the toxins present in those foods? b. The natural pesticides present in plants constitute more than 99% of the toxins we eat. Should diet planning, especially for vegetarians, take into account the doses of toxins present in the diet?
In what ways are GMOs harmful to either people or the environment? What arguments can be made against them?
Discuss the latest research related to genetically modified food (GMOs). Consider the research conducted or in the process of being conducted related to such foods.
Much of the controversy over genetically engineered foods has centered on whether special labeling should be required on all products made from genetically modified crops. Some people have advocated labeling that identifies the product as having been made from genetically modified plants. Others have argued that food labeling should be required to identify only the ingredients, not the process by which they were produced. Choose a side in this issue and justify your stand.
Katelyn had been working for Dr. Johnson for a month, and while she had become quite good at measuring inhibitionzones, she didn’t know why she was doing all this work. She had gotten very curious after she began doing all themeasurements on a new set of antibiotics. # is experiment involved infecting mice with MRSA and tracking how theMRSA grew over time.Data were collected by counting the cells of MRSA taken from $ uid samples from the mice. # e cells were measuredby taking one gram of the $ uid and spreading it over plates, but now Katelyn counted the colonies that grew on theplate after 24 hours. Because there were so many, she actually measured the colonies as “log CFU/g.” A CFU is acolony forming unit, or essentially a cell that will divide into a colony that can be seen. Because there can be so many,Katelyn measured them on a logarithmic (log) scale. # e raw data in her lab notebook looked like the following:Table 1. E% ect of treatment on MRSA in mice after 24 hours of drug…
