Instructions: Now that your group has decided on an issue, you must demonstrate that there is a problem. You will turn in this research sheet completed with two articles attached that you showed that there is a problem

Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods derived from genetically modified organisms.Genetically modified organisms have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques.

Other techniques by which humans modify food organisms include selective breeding; plant breeding, and animal breeding, and somaclonal variation.

II. Facts that demonstrate that there is a problem are:
