Multiple Choice

How are selective breeding and GMO's different?

1

GMO's can impact the environment, Selective breeding can not

2

GMO's have been happening for thousands of years, Selective breeding is a new practice

4

Selective breeding occurs in only plants. Both plants and animals can be genetically modified

39

Multiple Choice
