Question

read the excerpt from \gm food: fuel for our future.\ also, crops can be genetically engineered to be more nutritious. golden rice, for example, has been altered to have more vitamin a than spinach. this is important because according to scientific american, \vitamin a deficiency causes more than one million deaths annually and half a million cases of irreversible blindness in the developing world.\ golden rice alone could help save millions of lives and prevent blindness. overall, our growing world desperately needs gm food to survive. the food these crops produce costs less and is safer and more nutritious than anything you could get from a traditional crop. as you can see, the benefits of gm food outweigh the far - fetched, unsubstantiated risks that critics have put forth. which phrases from the excerpt support the authors argument that genetically modified food is safe? select three options. more vitamin a you can see could help save traditional crop unsubstantiated risks more nutritious

Explanation:

• "more vitamin A" shows a beneficial nutritional aspect which implies safety in terms of providing essential nutrients.
• "could help save" indicates a positive impact (saving lives, preventing blindness) which is related to the safety - as it's about the positive outcome rather than harm.
• "more nutritious" implies that the GM food is a better option in terms of health (a safety - related aspect as it's about proper nutrition for the body).

Answer:

more vitamin A, could help save, more nutritious
