Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are living organisms whose genetic material has been artificially manipulated in a laboratory through genetic engineering. This creates combinations of plant, animal, bacteria, and virus genes that do not occur in nature or through traditional crossbreeding methods.
Genetically modified plants
Genetically modified crops (GM crops) are plants used in agriculture, the DNA of which has been modified using genetic engineering methods. In most cases, the aim is to introduce a new trait to the plant which does not occur naturally in the species.Image result for genetically modified organisms plants
Genetically modified animals
Image result for EnviropigGenetically modified animals are animals that have been genetical motified for a variety of purposes including producing drugs, enhancing yields, increase resistance to disease, etc. The vast majority of genetically modified animals are at the research stage with the number close to entering the market remains small.
Image result for pig
A pig is any of the animals in the genus Sus, within the even-toed ungulate family Suidae. Pigs include the domestic pig and its ancestor, the common Eurasian wild boar (Sus scrofa), along with other species. Related creatures outside the genus include the peccary, the babirusa, and the warthog. Pigs, like all suids, are native to the Eurasian and African continents.Juvenile pigs are known as piglets.

genetically modified Yorkshire pig that produces phytase in its salivary glands and can thus digest plant phosphorus more efficiently than ordinary pigs, allowing for cheaper feeding and reduced phosphorus pollution.
Genetically modified food
According to the World Health Organization, "genetically modified organisms (GMOs) can be defined as organisms (i.e. plants, animals or microorganisms) in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally by mating and/or natural recombination.

Taiga ecosystems

Image
Location of the Taiga Ecosystems The  taiga  is the largest biome. The  taiga  is primarily a coniferous forest (evergreen trees with needles) like the temperate rainforest, but the  taiga  is  located between 50 degrees latitude north and the Arctic circle. The  taiga  is a forest of the cold, subarctic region. The subarctic is an area of the Northern Hemisphere that lies just south of the Arctic Circle. The  taiga  lies between the tundra to the north and temperate forests to the south. Alaska, Canada, Scandinavia, and Siberia have Taiga. Climate The  taiga  is the terrestrial biome with the lowest annual average temperatures after the tundra and permanent ice caps. ... The  taiga  or boreal forest has a subarctic  climate  with very large temperature range between seasons, but the long and cold winter is the dominant feature. Plants There are some lichens and mosses, but most  plants ...

littoral zone ecosystem

Image
Littoral Zone Location The littoral zone or nearshore is the part of a sea, lake, or river that is close to the shore. In coastal environments, the littoral zone extends from the high water mark, which is rarely inundated, to shoreline areas that are permanently submerged.                                      Climate of littoral zones The air and water  temperature  can range from extremely hot to below freezing to moderate. The average range of air  temperature  is from 75°f to 102°f. The  intertidal zone  does have seasons. The inter tidal  zone  has hot and humid summers, moderate springs and falls, and cool harsh  winters.                                                         ...

River and Streams by Yuridia and Briana

River and Stream Ecosystem in this ecosystem we are going to talk about river and stem ecosystem.it will talk about all sorts of plants and animals Animals : Some of the animals that live in the river or streams are  turtles, ducks, otters, crocodiles, catfish, drag on fly and crabs can be found in  rivers  all around the world, and the Amazon river is even home to the rare and pink, freshwater dolphin. an d for your information we are talking about all rivers and streams   climate: Rivers change their course as they travel and carve a path through the land.  The temperatures range from 65 °F to 75 °F in the summer and 35 °F to 45 °F in the winter. plants: Rivers and streams  are fresh water and hold up to 3 percent of the Earth's fresh water. Freshwater  plants  include algae, bulrushes and cattails, and freshwater animals include crayfish, fish and eels. location: Rivers /  Streams : A...
