Which ones are realistic concerns? select all that applys a)Some GMO are patented and farmers must buy seeds every year rather than saving them from their crops. b)GMO's cause allergies at a greater rate than crops produced by cross-breeding. c)Inserted genes produce amino acids not found in nature. d)Inserted genes may escape into wild plants near farmed fields.
