Question

some gmo crops can emit a pesticide (protecting the crop from pests because the pesticide either kills or keeps away the pest).
true
false

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) can be engineered to produce substances that act as pesticides. For example, Bt crops produce a protein (Bt toxin) that is toxic to certain pests. This protein either kills the pests (by disrupting their digestive systems) or deters them (as they avoid consuming the crop with the toxin). So, the statement about GMO crops emitting pesticides (in the form of such pest - controlling substances) is correct.

Answer:

True
