Answer:

Portugal

Explanation:

Among the various peoples that formed Brazil, Europeans had the greatest influence on the formation of Brazilian culture, especially those of Portuguese origin.

For 322 years the territory was colonized by Portugal, which implied the transplantation of both people and culture from the metropolis to South American lands. The number of Portuguese settlers greatly increased in the eighteenth century, at the time of the Gold Cycle.

In 1808, D. João VI's own court moved to Brazil, an event with major political, economic and cultural implications. Portuguese immigration did not stop with Brazil's independence: Portugal remained one of the most important sources of immigrants to Brazil until the mid-twentieth century.

The most evident Portuguese heritage for Brazilian culture is the Portuguese language, currently spoken by virtually all inhabitants of the country. The Catholic religion, the belief of the majority of the population, is also due to colonization. Catholicism, deeply rooted in Portugal, bequeathed to Brazil the traditions of the religious calendar, with its festivals and processions. The two most important festivals in Brazil, the carnival and the June festivals, were introduced by the Portuguese.

Research the issue of genetically modified foods, and then write an essay against their use
Sladkaya [172]

Genetic modification is a special set of gene technology that alters the genetic machinery of such living organisms as animals, plants or microorganisms. Combining genes from different organisms is known as recombinant DNA technology and the resulting organism is said to be ‘Genetically modified (GM)’, ‘Genetically engineered’ or ‘Transgenic’. The principal transgenic crops grown commercially in field are herbicide and insecticide resistant soybeans, corn, cotton and canola. Other crops grown commercially and/or field-tested are sweet potato resistant to a virus that could destroy most of the African harvest, rice with increased iron and vitamins that may alleviate chronic malnutrition in Asian countries and a variety of plants that are able to survive weather extremes. There are bananas that produce human vaccines against infectious diseases such as hepatitis B, fish that mature more quickly, fruit and nut trees that yield years earlier and plants that produce new plastics with unique properties. But here is one thing I learned. GMO Is a very bad issue since basically people are spraying chemicals on the plants which we eat. There are these 2 things I want you to know whne your in a store picking out your food. Organic vegetables? Good! it doesn't say organic or anything? that means it's not organic it's usually 98% GM in my opinion. GMO can affect your body and how it functions. I Hope this helps! it took so long to write! Please comment if I helped!
