2. Genetically modified food is an aliment in which
a gene has been inserted from another species.

3. -This can produce hybridization, in other words,
this can produce other consequences that we
don’t know.
-This crops can move traditional crops because
this are contagious.
-Biodiversity is lost, from plants until the animals
who eat this plants.
- Transgenic crops often becomes more expensive
than traditional.

4. -We don’t know what
side effects may have
in future.
-It can be dangerous for
people with allergies
because this products
are not tagged

5. The modification of the food attempts to get
more production, to be more nutritional food,
to produce medicines, vaccines, etc…

6. There are a lot of
genetically modified food.
Corn
The GM is resistant to
insects because it has a
gene from the
bacterium, Bacillus thuringi
ensis, which produces a
toxic protein to
the organism.

7. POTATO
The genetically
modified contain
more starch and,
therefore, to be fried, it
take the golden
color soon without much
oil.

8. RICE
There are rice which
are able to
produce vitamin A, which
helps the view and can
serve for visual
problems caused by this
lack.

9. A genetically modified
animal has one or more
genes that do not
belong to the animal to
produce any product
of interest.
The first modified animal
was the mouse, in 1982.

10. -We can insert deseases to
produce news
medicines.
-To obtein organs for
humans transplants.
-To obtain best nutritional
value or more milk with
proteins.

11. -First we create the gene,
this gene will produce a
interesting product for
us.
-Next, we introduce this
gene into a mammalian
cell.
-Finally, locate the protein
of interest.

12. They say to have a free trade
must be able to trade with
GMO products.
I think that they don’t know
the terrible consequences.

13. The European Union
counter-position is that
free trade is not truly free
without informed
consent. In Europe we
use the crops are GMO
of: corn, cotton, tomato
and potato.

14. Here in Catalonia we can buy
Genetically Modified food
but must be labeled if it
contains 0.9% modified.
The people of Catalonia do not
approve genetically modified
organisms.
More than 105.896 signatures
against GMOs were
delivered to the catalan
Parliament.

15. The Spanish legislation on
GMO labeling orders
