Read the passage. Then explain the ways humans have influenced the traits in corn plants and the impacts each biotechnology has had.
Passage
Many of the types of corn found in grocery stores were originally bred for their taste and productivity. But these varieties are often threatened by pests. This makes it harder for farmers to produce enough corn.
Scientists have used genetic engineering to make GMO corn plants that are resistant to pests. In one type of GMO plant, they added genes from bacteria that live in soil. The genes let the GMO plants produce a bacterial protein that kills certain insects.
