Answer: <u>Genetic Modification of crop plants.</u>
Explanation:
Genetic modification alters the genome of an organisms through the use of biotechnological tools and advancements in molecular biology. Usually, DNA is swapped among organisms, and between species; this is called transgenes. These altered plants are usually called transgenic organisms.
Some plants can be modified in several ways to meet global food security needs. These include:
-drought tolerance-plants grow in arid conditions with minimal water
-increased yield- plants produce more crop per input
It is important the entire scientific community uses the metric system rather than each country having its own system because when scientist are comparing or sharing results they wont have to do extra steps of converting to different measurements it will just be the same and less confusing.
