MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

3 mins • 1 pt

Reading 5: Items 37 – 41 Read the research study.

(1) About 25 years ago, a group of Canadian scientists wanted to create a strain of salmon

that could survive in fish farms in the cold water of New Brunswick. They took genetic material from Chinook salmon and from an eel - like fish called the ocean pout and injected it into the eggs of an Atlantic salmon. The result was a fast-growing fish that looks and tastes like a regular farmed Atlantic salmon. Some people call it a "super salmon," while others call it "Frankenfish," after the fictional monster created by Dr. Frankenstein.

(2) The controversial fish, called the AquAdvantage salmon, has been genetically modified.

That means some of its DNA has been artificially changed. The modified salmon is also "transgenic,"

which means genetic material from a different type of organism has been artificially added to

the salmon's DNA.

(3) The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which regulates food in the United States,

studied the salmon for several years. In 2010, they decided that the salmon was safe to eat and would have "no significant impact" on the environment as long as it was raised in special facilities

and could not accidentally be released into rivers or oceans.

(4) Because so many people requested that the FDA reconsider its decision, the FDA asked for

comments from the public. It received more than 35,000 responses. It is still considering these

comments and has not yet announced whether it will allow the salmon to be sold as food for humans.


37 What is the main idea of the article?

Salmon has become the world's first genetically modified animal.

Modified salmon's safety as food is still questionable.

The request to market modified salmon has been withdrawn.

The U.S. FDA has reconsidered the safety of the Atlantic salmon.
