Genetically Modified Organisms; What you should know about GMO's

Genetically Modified Organisms; What you should know about GMO's - MyABC50.com... Start Here: "Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are defined as plants or animals created through the gene splicing techniques of biotechnology. This experimental technology merges DNA from different species, creating unstable combinations of plant, animal, bacterial and viral genes that cannot occur in nature or in traditional crossbreeding.  In simpler terms, this is like trying to get an almond to cross-pollinate with a tomato.  It simply wouldn’t happen under normal conditions in nature.  Through genetic modification, a scientist could create this scenario in a laboratory by inserting the desired genes from the almond into the tomato, resulting in a breed of tomatoes that would never occur in nature."
