Question

this is an example of biotechnology: In order to increase the yield of oil from canola, research focused on ways to reduce competition from competitor weed plants. Weeds can be controlled by spraying with a herbicide that interferes with biological processes, like amino acid anabolic reactions, in the plant cells. A mutant of canola that is resistant to herbicides is sometimes grown in fields that are sprayed with the herbicide. The majority of canola in Canada, though, is genetically modified to be resistant to herbicides. also use the link: https://youtu.be/VS3kcwgIwm0

Question: 

 Evaluating Biotechnologies in Food Systems

As we practice being able to describe choices in Biology you will use this consolidation task to organize details about the advantages and disadvantages of biotechnologies. In an ideal world, all solutions to improving our food system would have no negative consequences. But issues in Biology involve the interaction of many different factors and changes in one factor can lead to side effects in the others. Decisions should be made by weighing the best evidence for and against a particular choice of biotechnology.

Use the example of biotechnology described upwards. Using details from this Activity as well as details from other sources, such as PubMed, describe the advantages and disadvantages of this biotechnology. As you continue your research, keep track of your sources. Ask yourself, should the biotechnology be used to help improve a specific issue in our food system? Use good Initiative skills  and present these details in a discussion web similar to the example below.
