Welcome to the great GMO debate, a Webquest for Biology 30 students! Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO's) are quickly becoming a large percentage of our diet. There is great concern about the potential impact of GMO crop production on our health, the environment and our economy.  Genetically modified crops are created to maximize yield. As our population grows agricultural space is becoming increasingly valuable which in turn increases the demand for high yield crops. The most recent debate surrounding GMO's is whether or not the public should be informed of food products created with the produce from these genetically modified crops.
