Vedclass · Answer

(C) Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are created to improve agricultural productivity and food quality. $1$. Crops are engineered to be more tolerant to abiotic stresses such as cold,drought,salt,and heat ($A$ is correct). $2$. They are designed to reduce reliance on chemical pesticides by incorporating pest-resistant genes (e.g.,$Bt$ cotton) ($B$ is correct). $3$. GMOs are often developed to enhance,not reduce,the nutritional value of food (e.g.,Golden Rice,which is enriched with Vitamin $A$) ($C$ is incorrect). $4$. They are engineered to increase the efficiency of mineral usage by plants,preventing early exhaustion of soil fertility ($D$ is correct). Therefore,the incorrect statement is that GMOs have reduced nutritional value.
