  1. Pro, it can get rid of pesticides.

    Con, could spread to weeds.

  2. Some evidence that supports the "pro GMO" side is that using GMOs can keep species from becoming extinct. Some evidence that supports the "no GMO" side is that GMOs are bad for farmers and they aren't healthy.

  3. no gmo alll natural and with gmos is better nutrients

  4. One Pro is that it makes food bigger and one Con is that it effects wild life.

  5. a pro, is it increases yield of crops

    ReplyDelete
  6. A positive is that it could improve yield but a negative is that the GMO could go into the weeds.

  12. One negitive thing would be if something cross polinated and the weeds got jacked and got gainzz and killed all the good plants.
    A good thing would be made food more peful and nutritious.

  13. positive: could improve yield negative: reduces genetic diversity

  14. a con is it isn't good for animals

  15. Pro gets rid of pesticides.

  16. a pro is resistance to insects a con is food allergies.

  17. pro:Insect resistance

    con:gene transfer

    the good thing is that it reduces genetic diversity con WEEEEEEDS.

  19. So theres this guy on the pro gmo side is like
    "it could make food higher in protein! or it could grow in poor soil or climate"
    so this guy on hate for gmos looks at him and is like.
    "you lie because we don't know if theres a long term effect to animals or the plants or US!!,and the genes could spread to the weeds and make them harder to kill!!!"
    the two guys had a big fight on this for a long time tell they died or word loss.

  20. they can make food more nutrias and have a longer self life but it could also be bad for you and turn out to have side-affects.

    Con: could make world hunger worse

  25. Ap pro is that it will make the food population bigger and better, A con is that it will kill some wildlife.

    ReplyDelete
  26. A positive point is that the food good be more nutrient rich.

    A con is, the pesticide resistant that the GMO may have could spread to weeds.

  27. The Pro side of GMO's is that it can keep different species alive longer. And the No GMO's side is that the food and crops for people (farmers) Would not be healthy to eat.

  28. middle ground

  29. Im in the middle

  30. Pros: NUTRIENTS.

    Cons: LACK OF NUTRIENTS.

  31. we don't know how if the can kill you or give you a new dises
    you can leave it on the shelf longer

    ReplyDelete
  32. may the 4th be with you...

  33. On the good side GMOS increase the size of crops and on the bad side GMOS limit the nutritional values in food products.

    ReplyDelete
  34. One pro of GMO's is it makes different animals live longer, and the risk of GMO's is that food for people wouldn't be healthy to eat.

    ReplyDelete
  35. it could produce an ABOMINATION!!!!!!!! as a risk

    ReplyDelete
  36. has resistance to pesticides but affect growth of people

    ReplyDelete
  37. One pro of GMO's is it makes different animals live longer, and the risk of GMO's is that food for people wouldn't be healthy to eat.

  38. * Less diversity
    * more crops

    ReplyDelete
  39. Genetic engineering can allow the growth of more food, but it can also cause unwanted illnesses within individuals.

  41. One good thing that could come from genetically modifying organisms is that crops could produce more of the product that they produce. One bad thing that could come from genetically modifying organisms is that crops could start producing dead parts of the plants because you never know if the plant can be harmed by the new genetic information that was inserted into it.

    ReplyDelete
  58. help plants grow healthy
