Genetic Engineering

This week we will be working on the standard about genetic engineering. MS-LS4-5
Have you ever heard of genetic engineering before? How about genetically modified organisms? 
Do you know of any organisms in which humans have influenced the genetic outcomes?

  1. Heard of it but I don't know what it is. The organisms that may influence genetic outcome may depend on your gender.

  2. I have heard of GMO's. They are chemicals that are put in food to make them last longer. They go in seeds for things like corn,beens and other things that grow on a farm.

  3. I haven't heard of genetic engineering or genetically modified organisms. I do not know of any organisms that humans have changed the genetic outcome of.

  4. Yes I have heard of GMOs which usually makes a food modified to something like seedless grapes which is modified because usually there are a seeds in a grape.

  5. i have not heard anything about this but humans can have influence on there senetics because they chose there gender and genetics.

    I have Heard about Genetic engineering and Genetically modified organisms. I know how organisms in which humans have a influence because my mom had a gene for brown eyes and my dad had one for green but both of my grandpa's have or had blue eyes

    I have heard of genetic engineering and GMOs before...
    People take genes from the DNA of one species and inject them into an unrelated organism. Most GMOs are in your food.

  12. I have heard of Genetic Engineering and Genetically Modified Organisms before.GMO's are Chemicals that are put in food to make it last longer especially on Farms.Farmers put GMOs on Fruits and Vegetables because Fruits and Vegetables are only good for a certain amount off time.

  14. i have no idea about any of it

    ReplyDelete
  15. I have heard about it but have forgotten.

  16. Yes, it is when they make organisms into new organsims by modifiying them for food or domestication.

  17. I have not heard about any of this.

  19. I have heard of genetic engineering and I do not know how humans have influenced genetic outcomes.

  20. i haven't heard about genetic engineering or gmo. i have not heared about any of it.

  21. I dont know but is it GMO'S?

  23. sorry i have not herd of this before maybe i should read about it

    ReplyDelete
  24. GMO's are chemicals they put in food to make it bigger and taste better. GMO'S also make it so food last longer.

    ReplyDelete
  25. yes i have her a lot about GMOs.
    and corn is a genetically modified.

    ReplyDelete
  26. nope i have not heard of them

    ReplyDelete
  27. I've heard about it, and I know that dogs have been genetically modified to look the way they do by breeding two different kinds of dogs together.

  28. i have not heard of them

  29. we need to stop screwing with genetics and wildlife. one of these days its gonna come back and kick us in the As*

  30. GMO's are geneticly altered organisms/plants. This makes the organism better in a way for example used in foods mostly food such as vegetables which are geneticly made to grow larger or the taste is different or they do something to make it for people. In 65 countries this is allowed but the U.S is not one of them.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I have heard of it before but I don't know much about it, so I don't know of the influences by humans.

  36. I have heard of genetic engineering. I don't know how humans have influenced genetic outcomes.

  37. I don't thin I have heard about genetic engineering or GMO. I have not hear about any of it.

  38. GMO,S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I have heard of GMOs i have no idea what they are.

    ReplyDelete
  40. ACTUALLY. They use those to modify food to make them last longer! They also use it to breed animals, putting the stuff in their food to make them stronger, bigger, etc.

  41. I have heard of genetic engineering but I don't know how humans have influenced genetic outcomes.

  42. I have heard about it before but Id on't know what it is and I have heard about GMO's in health but I don't remember and I don't know about any organisms influenced the genetic outcomes.

    ReplyDelete
  43. All of them they are the cause of all evil they will KILL US ALLLLLLLLLLLL!

    every organism has em

  44. i don't know :)

  47. Im not that sure

    ReplyDelete
  48. Yes, I have heard of them. I know that corn is usually genetically modified.

  49. i havent heard of it that mutch but i know its used to make food last longer

    ReplyDelete
  50. Yes, I have heard of genetic engineering and I don't have an idea on how humans have influenced genetic outcomes.

  51. I haven't heard of any of it so I'm happy I'll learn a little more. :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. I have heard of genetic engineering, and an organism which has been genetically modified by humans would be pretty much any type of farm grown fruit nowadays, particularly seedless watermelon, which did not exist before human intervention.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I have never heard about it but I dont know how humans have influenced genetic outcomes but I know it can be used to make food last longer

  54. Yes, I have heard of this. I do not have an idea on how humans have influenced genetic outcomes.

  55. Heard of it but I don't know what it is.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I've heard of it but they genetically modify food and animals to last longer or have a better taste or something like that.

  57. I have heard of genetic engineering and GMOs before people take genes from the DNA of one species and inject them into an unrelated organism.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I have heard of GMO's I havent heard of any of the other things.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I have heard a little bit about it. An orgianism that could be genneticly modified would be a dog because they used to be wolfs but then the got modififed because they lived with humans.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I have never heard any of this before.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I've heard about GMO's, for example, people inject GMO's into cattle, the GMO's make the cattle bigger and fatter, producing more meat, more meat, more money.

    ReplyDelete
  62. I've heard of genetic engineering and GMOs before. For example, in the 1950s, the Gros Michel, the (then) most widely sold banana variety in the world went basically extinct due to the Panama Virus. Since the world still wanted bananas, scientists created a banana that was most resistant to the Panama Virus, and was more ideal, having no seeds. The only problem in this new banana, the cavendish, is that all of the bananas are now genetically the same, so if the virus somehow infects one, the rest have no way of overcoming the virus.

  63. i heard of gmo's but noting else

    ReplyDelete
  64. Genetic Engineering I think would be a lesson on genetic makeup and genders.
