Why are microwave dinners genetically modified?
Only if the ingredients contain genetically modified organisms.
How are genetically modified organisms different from non genetically modified organisms?
Genetically modified organisms (GMO) are different from non-genetically modified organisms in that GMO have had their genes manipulated and intentionally changed by human action in a laboratory. With GMO we can introduce any particular character by providing gene sequence responsible for that character

What are the harmful effects of planting genetically modified organisms in other organisms in the surrounding fields?
Genetically modified organisms can outcompete other organisms, decreasing species diversity.
What are genetically modified GM organisms and GM foods?
Genetically modified(GM)organisms are those organisms whose DNA, or genetic material has been altered through modern biotechnology whereas GM foods are those from genetically engineered crops.
What is GMO genetically modified organisms?
A genetically modified organism results from a gene being removed from one organism and artificially inserted into an organism of a totally different species. This is a simplified explanation and the process is done in a lab.
In which books can one complete research on genetically modified organisms?
The Poison Planters,by Charles Sutherland,offers information on actual genetic incidents.Testing of Genetically Modified Organisms In Foods by Farid E. Ahmed is available on Albris.
Who discovered genetically modified organisms and when?
No one discovered genetically modified organisms. Such organisms are created by people working in laboratories. In 1953 it was discovered that DNA is the material that carries genes, the information that defines and structures each organism. For the next 50 years people worked to understand DNA and eventually learned how to modify it, in some circumstances. When such a modification is successful, the result is an organism that has been genetically modified - a genetically modified organism.
What are some examples of the classification of technology?
biotechnology,GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) Bioremediation,
Why are genetically modified organism beneficial?
Genetically modified organisms are modified on a genetic level to benefit humans. How this can pose a threat to a population or ecosystem, is that if the genetically modified organism were to somehow create a mutation, and pass that on, it could be damaging to the future generations in reducing their health or other issues may arise. It can also be damaging to an ecosystem if a genetically modified organism were to escape into a wild population and change it.
What is GMO in foods?
A GMO food is one that has been genetically modified by removing a gene from one species and forcing it into the seeds of another species in a lab.
How many food companies use genetically modified organisms in their products?
Nearly every company uses "genetically modified organisms" in their products, because nearly everything we raise for food today has been bred so that it's quite different from its wild ancestors ... its genetics have been modified.
