Detailed explanation-1: -Yet GMOs pose an array of concerns. Mixing up plant genes can threaten allergy sufferers – like when Brazil nuts were crossed with soybeans. GMOs increase resistance to antibiotics, making medicines less effective. Fears have been raised over possible links to cancer, reproductive malfunction, digestive disorders.
Detailed explanation-2: -Genetic modification produces genetically modified animals, plants and organisms. If they are introduced into the environment they can affect biodiversity. For example, existing species can be overrun by more dominant new species.
Detailed explanation-3: -In summary, GMO crops can have remarkable environmental benefits. They allow farmers to produce more food with fewer inputs. They help us spare land, reduce deforestation, and promote and reduce chemical use.
Detailed explanation-4: -They create super weeds is not a benefit of GMOs. Due to that, offspring will be produced with desirable traits. Some of the possible benefits of these GMOs are more nutrition, disease and drought-resistant, able to grow in drier regions, needs lesser environmental resources like water, they grow faster, and so on.
