and benefiting both the consumer and the producer(Wu, 2004), as it significantly decreases the reliance on commercial insecticides and reduces crop failure. Bt corn is engineered to produce an insecticide, as it contains genes from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. This gene enables the corn to express Cry proteins that kill lepidoptera larvae(invasive insects that eat crops). The Cry proteins are ingested and converted to toxins inside the insect. The toxins bind to receptors present in…

The contamination of food is an issue that can have deadly repercussions at any time to any person. The United States is not the only country that is impacted, contamination happens all over the globe.

Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are organisms that have been changed around by mutating, inserting, and deleting genes with the use of genetic engineering techniques or biotechnology (Goldbas 20). The goals genetic engineers seek is to create plant resistance to weeds, insect pests, plant diseases, droughts, and floods (Lundquist 26). Grumet, Hancock, Maredia, and Weebadde explained how genetically engineered crops are developed using a combination of genetic engineering and conventional…
