GMO’s
are
microorganisms,
plants,
and
animals
that
have
their
genes
altered.
Usually
they
are
modified
either
to
further
scientific
research
or
to
alter
the
food
supply.
Common
genetic
modifications
include:
adding
antibacterial
genes
to
plants,
introducing
genes
that
make
the
organism
bigger
or
hardier,
making
new
foods
by
adding
genes
from
existing
foods,
and
adding
animals
genes
to
plants
and
vice
versa.
Most
American
crops
are
now
genetically
modified
and
the
percentage
of
GMO’s
in
our
food
supply
is
growing
extremely
rapidly.
Products
that
are
genetically
modified
do
not
have
to
be
labeled
as
such.
