Unit 6 Discussion

Do a Web search (reviewing at least 2–3 websites or scholarly articles) on Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) with their pros and cons. What do you think? Should you include GMO foods in our grocery stores? Should all people eat GMO foods? Do you think there are certain groups of people who should avoid GMO foods (children, pregnant women, cancer patients, etc.?) Do you think that you should know if what you are eating is genetically modified? Current regulations do not make this necessary.

What are your thoughts on genetically modified rice containing higher levels of vitamin A to help support vision and decrease diseases in children?

Discussion responses should be on topic, original, and contribute to the quality of the discussion by making frequent informed references to lesson materials and Seminars. Initial Discussion responses should be around 150 words. Responses to your classmates or instructor should be around 75 words.

Make two or more responses to classmates that are thoughtful and advance the Discussion. Responses should be formatted using APA style guidelines
