Bioterrorism is the use of biological agents, such as pathogenic organisms or agricultural pest, for terrorist purposes.
ReplyDeleteThe term GM foods or GMOs (genetically-modified organisms) is most commonly used to refer to crop plants created for human or animal consumption using the latest molecular biology techniques. These plants have been modified in the laboratory to enhance desired traits such as increased resistance to herbicides or improved nutritional content. The world population is increasing and to insure food supply and GM foods promise to meet this need in a number of ways, such as, pest resistance, herbicide tolerance, disease resistance, cold tolerance, drought tolerance, among many others. This could help substantially because the population is only going to increase. Just like anything else, GM foods have their cons. They can raise environmental hazards, human health risk, and economic concerns. GMO's environmental commons believes that GMO's constrict farmer seed and variety privileges, confer private ownership of otherwise commonly held life forms, create unanticipated environmental effects, threaten human health, suppress the development and integrity of less intensive, more sustainable farming systems, and damage local farming economies.
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism is the intentional use of micro-organisms to bring about ill effects or death to humans, livestock, or crops. The use of micro-organisms to cause disease is a growing concern for public health officials and agricultural bodies. The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 and the subsequent bio-terrorist releases of anthrax have led to an increased awareness of workplaces as possible terrorist targets. An unknown substance and can knowingly put into the environment and cause devastating effects, such as death to humans and other organisms. There are three categories of bioterrorism. Category A, Category B and Category C. Category A is Smallpox, Anthrax, Plague, Botulism and others. They're listed Category A because they can be easily disseminated or transmitted person-to-person
and cause high mortality, with potential for major public health impact. Category B is Q fever, Brucellosis, Glanders, Alphaviruses, and others. They're listed as Category B because they are moderately easy to disseminate and cause moderate morbidity and low mortality. Category C includes Nipah virus, Hantaviruses, tickborne Hemorrhagic Fever viruses, tickborne Encephalitis viruses, and others. They're listed as Category C because they have availability
and ease of production and dissemination. We are much better prepared today than we were two years ago thanks in large part to the funds appropriated by Congress to support federal, state, and local bioterrorism preparedness and response efforts (Henderson). The President and Congress have been and continue to be extremely concerned about this threat. Over the past two years a considerable amount of money has been appropriated by Congress and passed by the President to support weapons of mass destruction (Henderson). Most health insurance doesn't cover bioterrorism but it could potentially have great damage not only in America, but across the globe.
genetically modified is combining genes from different organisms is known as recombinant DNA technology, and the resulting organism
ReplyDeleteGMO is any plants, animals, or microorganisms whose genetic code has been altered, subtracted, or added, either from the same species or from a different species, in order to give it characteristics that it does not have naturally. Scientists use transgenesis which is transferring genes between species.Bioterrorism is the use or threatened use, of a biological agent to promote or spread fear or intimidation upon an individual, a specific gruop, or the population as a whole for rligious, political, idealogical, financial, or personal reasons. It can be easily transmitted from person to person and can result in high mortality rates.

ReplyDeleteGenetically modified organisms (GMOs) can be defined as organisms in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally. The technology is often called “modern biotechnology” or “gene technology”, sometimes also “recombinant DNA technology” or “genetic engineering”. It allows selected individual genes to be transferred from one organism into another, also between non-related species.
ReplyDeleteGM foods are developed – and marketed – because there is some perceived advantage either to the producer or consumer of these foods. This is meant to translate into a product with a lower price, greater benefit (in terms of durability or nutritional value) or both. Initially GM seed developers wanted their products to be accepted by producers so have concentrated on innovations that farmers (and the food industry more generally) would appreciate.
ReplyDeleteResponse #1 (eant16): I didn't know scientists use transgenesis which is transferring genes between species.
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism is the intentional use of micro-organisms to bring illnees or death to humans, animals, crops...etc. Th emicro-organisms release viruses, bacteria, or other germs during the attack. This use of micro-oranisms to cause a disease or even death is a growing concern for public health officials and really to all people.
ReplyDeleteDifferent GM organisms include different genes inserted in different ways. This means that individual GM foods and their safety should be assessed on a case-by-case basis and that it is not possible to make general statements on the safety of all GM foods.
ReplyDeleteGM foods currently available on the international market have passed risk assessments and are not likely to present risks for human health. In addition, no effects on human health have been shown as a result of the consumption of such foods by the general population in the countries where they have been approved. Continuous use of risk assessments based on the Codex principles and, where appropriate, including post market monitoring, should form the basis for evaluating the safety of GM foods.
Brandon i totally agree with you on the GMOs should be useful within the years to come but theres way too many side effects
ReplyDeleteGenetically modified foods are foods derived from GMO crops
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism is when terrorism is used for biological agents. Biological wepons have been used for a long time. They have been used to wage war and promote terror throughtout history.For example, in 400 B.C, Scythian archers used arrows dipped in blood and manure or decomposing bodies. Years later, a plague swept across medieval Europe killing 25 million people.
ReplyDeleteThe most famous, and successful use of bioterrorism in the U.S. occurred during September 1984. Followers of the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh contaminated salad bars in The Dalles, Oregon with Salmonella Typhimurium. Over 750 cases of salmonellosis were determined to be caused by the salad bar contamination. It was later discovered that the Rajneeshpuram cult wanted to form their own township. The cult members obtained the Salmonella strain through the mail from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC).
To transform a plant into a GMO plant, the gene that produces a genetic trait of interest is identified and separated from the rest of the genetic material from a donor organism
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism started with the poisoning of arrows using manure, blood and decomposing bodies. During many wars infected garments were given to the opposition to poison them. Recently, anthrax is the new bioterrorism agent. It has been sent around and the United States banned the ordering of it. Bioterrorism is growing everyday as new discoveries are made and a biowarfare is a huge fear.
ReplyDeleteAn act of bioterrorism is sending someone mail with a certain powder in it. many have done this and the person who has recieved it had got a disease such as anthrax. if you recieve a suspicious envelope; do not shake it. If any powder pours out of the enevelope do NOT clean it up. Run out for help (go to the hospital). If you get a suspicious letter place it in a plastic bag in case anything pours out. Wash your hand extremly well and close the area where the powder spilled.Report it to the police. If possible list the people that was in the room with you at that certain time.
ReplyDeleteA donor organism may be a bacterium, fungus or even another plant.
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism is an extremely serious matter. Much like cloning and DNA replication bioterrorism is a conflict that most people don't think of on a daily basis. A lot of people aren't really aware of the seriousness of this threat. For example: In the fall of 1984 a buddhist cult brewed a "salsa" that contained salmonella and sprinkeled it on fruits and vegitables at a resturant called Shakey's Pizza. This proves that bioterrorism might not get much attention to the public eye but is as severe as any other type of warfare
ReplyDeleteResponse #2 (Christina): I didn't know that GM food was widespread internationally
ReplyDeleteFederal food law requires premarket approval for food additives, whether or not they are the products of biotechnology. FDA treats substances added to food products through recombinant DNA techniques as food additives if they are significantly different in structure, function or amount than substances currently found in food.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know any foods that are genectically modified?
ReplyDeleteAren't most of the foods we eat genetically modified?
ReplyDeleteResponce # 1 (brandon) Yeas, the issue of GM food is extremely wide spread. This is taking place all around the world.
ReplyDeleteIt is thought that by the year 2013, there will be a bioterror attack on the U.S, so biowarfare is a huge deal.
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism is the use of harmful biological substances to cause widespread illness and fear. Smallpox and anthrax are biological substances that could be used for bioterrorism.
ReplyDeleteResponse #3 (Mitch): Wouldn't you say the 2001 Anthrax epidemic was greater than the contaminated salad bars?
ReplyDeleteNot only did the cult sprinkle salmonella at the shakey's restturant, they also put salmonella on the products at ten other resturants and one supermarket.
ReplyDelete-Benji Shefler
Are there any vaccinations recommended to protect against a bioterrorism attack?
ReplyDeleteBioterriorism is a attack to relase viruses and bacteria or germs used 2 cause illness or death in ppl animals, or plants.
ReplyDeleteGMO is specal set of tech. that alter the gentic makeup of organisms such as animals platnts or bacteria.Basiclly meas using enzymes ot make products that include wine cheese beer and yougourt.
Yes tomer, but some aren't.
ReplyDeleteresponce # 2 (mitch): grapples the graisin, Bt corn, frito lay corn chips, corn flakes, ultra slim fast and normal every day foods, ectra.
ReplyDeleteThe anthrax epidemic was a huge deal and it's very easy for it to occur again. From what I see anthrax isn't that hard to obtain.
ReplyDeleteTo make geneticallly modified organisms one of the genes from the original organism is taken out of it and a new gene is put in. I t is pretty much the same idea as a designer baby. An example of a GM is a banana. An original banana has seeds that take up most of the space in the fruit so scientists take an original banana and take out the gene that makes the seeds and put in a gene that makes sure no seeds grow. So the bananas we eat cant reproduce becuase they dont have seeds in them. I think that it is ok to genetically modify things as long as it benifits the organisms or humans or something else. I dont think its right to genetically modify things just for fun.
ReplyDeleteWhen was bioterrorism first used???
ReplyDeleteWow frito lay corn chips contain GMO? I eat those everyday
ReplyDeletebioterrorism is the use of biological agents such as bacteria and viruses in a terrorist operation. The most likely biological toxins terrorists might adopt are anthrax, salmonella, e. coli, hoof-and-mouth disease, the plague, smallpox, botulism, and tularemia.
ReplyDeleteIt is not easy to acquire, handle, and disperse deadly biologic agents in quantities that would cause disease epidemics. However, a lot of counties have biological weapons progemas.
Law-enforcement and intelligence agencies of the federal government are working to control the flow of expertise and equipment necessary for large-scale bioterrorism acts. In addition, public-health experts have identified the most likely disease agents, such as anthrax and smallpox, and are working to improve our nation's disease-detection system to respond quickly.
responce # 3 (kevin): no kevin there is no vaccination, because there are all differnet types of bioterrorism
ReplyDeleteBrandon, more people got infected by the contaminated salad bars than the anthrax epidemic. Even though anthrax is deadly more people were infected.
ReplyDeleteremember you MUST write a 1 to 2 paragraph intro 1st explaining your research then respond to 5 different people (your 5 different responses can be short (one sentence) or as long as you want it to be.
ReplyDeleteResponse #4 (justtomerr): Yes, most of the foods we eat are genetically modified. Daily foods like soybeans, cotton, tomatoes, potatoes, corn, rice, and sugarcane are modified to our liking
ReplyDeletewhy is anthrax hard to use as a bioagent?
ReplyDeletewhat bioagent was used in the salad bar?
ReplyDeleterespone #1 in 600 BCE in assryia when ergot was used 2 commtaminte supplies of grain, the use of boide of plague and smallpox victoms for spreading the disease thru euraisa.
ReplyDeleteBecause its hard to get a hold of?
ReplyDeleteAnyone find any research on Bt corn?
ReplyDeleteBt-corn is a type of genetically modified organism, termed GMO. A GMO is a plant or animal that has been genetically modified through the addition of a small amount of genetic material from other organisms through molecular techniques.
ReplyDeleteThe CDC are the ones who make sure they are prepared for any type biological agents, but you take a few antibiotics to prevent a disease like anthrax.
ReplyDeleteMany chips and cerials are genetically modified such as chips, cerials, formula's, cake and bread mix, corn, pancake mix, morning star burgers, potato, soy beans, squash, tamatoes, and cotton.
ReplyDeleteAbout the vaccination, to be fully safe you would have to vaccinate yourself for a wide variety of diseases.
ReplyDeleteThe bioterrorism "agents" are seperated into 3 categories. Category A are consideredd the hightest risk!
ReplyDeleteCategory A: These agents include organisms or toxins taht pose the highest risk to the public b/c:
1. They can easily be spread from person to person
2.They result in high death rates.
Category B: second highest threat b/c:
1.They are moderetly easy to spread
2. They result in low death rate and 50% illness rate
Category C: Third highest threat
1. They are easily available
2. Easily produced and spread
respone #2 mr foster its used to kill the bugs!!
ReplyDeleteyes mr foster as i stated eariler :
ReplyDeleteBt-corn is a type of genetically modified organism, termed GMO. A GMO is a plant or animal that has been genetically modified through the addition of a small amount of genetic material from other organisms through molecular techniques. Currently, the GMOs on the market today have been given genetic traits to provide protection from pests, tolerance to pesticides, or improve its quality. Examples of GMO field crops include Bt-potatoes, Bt-corn, Bt-sweet corn, Roundup Ready soybeans, Roundup Ready Corn, and Liberty Link corn.
Yes, there are vaccinations to viral agents used as well as cures for bacterial agents used. But in all cases of infection control of the spread of the disease and how fast you are medicated is of great importance.
ReplyDeleteMy research on GMO’s and bioterrorism has led me to much information. First off, GMO’s are genetically modified organisms which means an organism that has been genetically altered by molecular biology techniques. The technique is usually used on foods or plant crops that humans essentially consume. Also this is where we increase the nutritional content on food making us healthier, some scientist even believe because of GMO’s the worlds population is 6 billion and is going to double in the next 50 years. GMO’s save plants by protecting them against herbicides, pest, bad weather, and ect. As long as GMO’s don’t fail us we should be good on the food supply. Bioterrorism is abusing bacteria and other viruses by enhancing it and using it on people to terrorize them. Bioterrorism is attractive to terrorist because its cheap to obtain and does a lot of damage. Bioterrorism is terrifying having anthrax or small pox being used against some one in war. At one point terrorist were sending anthrax in the mail causing much chaos. Terrorist usually use bioterrorism to further their social or political goals. If their were to be a bioterrorism attack we would surly be in great danger for many would die plants and animals too
ReplyDeleteThe Bt delta endotoxin was selected because it is highly effective at controlling Lepidoptera larvae, caterpillars. It is during the larval stage when most of the damage by European corn borer occurs. The protein is very selective, generally not harming insects in other orders (such as beetles, flies, bees and wasps). For this reason, GMOs that have the Bt gene are compatible with biological control programs because they harm insect predators and parasitoids much less than broad-spectrum insecticides. The Bt endotoxin is considered safe for humans, other mammals, fish, birds, and the environment because of its selectivity. Bt has been available as a commercial microbial insecticide since the 1960s and is sold under many trade names. These products have an excellent safety record and can be used on many crops until the day of harvest.
ReplyDeleteTo kill a susceptible insect, a part of the plant that contains the Bt protein (not all parts of the plant necessarily contain the protein in equal concentrations) must be ingested. Within minutes, the protein binds to the gut wall and the insect stops feeding. Within hours, the gut wall breaks down and normal gut bacteria invade the body cavity. The insect dies of septicaemia as bacteria multiply in the blood. Even among Lepidoptera larvae, species differ in sensitivity to the Bt protein.
Ok Christina but what is Bt?
ReplyDeleteGood Christina!
ReplyDeletebioterrorism terrosrism using biologic agents. biological diseases and the agents that might be used for terrorism have been listed by the us centers for disease control and prevention.
ReplyDeletecombining genes from different organisms is known as recombinat DNA technology, and the resulting oraganism.the treat of bioterrorism, long ingnored and denied, has heighened.
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a soil bacterium that produces insecticidal toxins.
ReplyDeleteMitch, the Anthrax was worse because it came just too months after the 9/11 attacks and people were in chaos, and the anthrax killed 5 people. The Anthrax was also worse because it wasn't detected my a normal person just receiving a letter and then infects the person while to avoid the salad bar contamination, all you did was have to avoid salad bars
ReplyDeleteBt is widely distributed. In addition to being found in many soils around the world, it is also found on the leaves of plants and in stored grain.
ReplyDeleteRespone #3 dont u die when u get infected?
ReplyDeleteWhat does that mean christina?
ReplyDeleteBT corn is when you genetically engeneer corn so it has a natural pestiside to keep bugs from eating it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know the use of anthrax was so recent.
ReplyDeleteYour right zee! Some of the biological agents consist of anthrax and small pox.
ReplyDeletewell mitch that is pretty self explainatory but, Bt is shorthand for common soil-inhabiting bacteria called Bacillus thuringiensis. Bt also refers to insecticide products made from these bacteria.
ReplyDeletehope that helped!
so bt corn doesnt have effect on the human
ReplyDeleteBt is a soil dwelling bacteria that is used as a pesticide. its found in caterpillers and moths and butterflies
ReplyDeletewhen was antrax used? reposne #4
ReplyDeleteestiw....is it dangerous for humans
ReplyDeleteThe next time you all go to the grocery store check out the fresh food side with all the veggies and fruit. Some descriptions tell you flat out that the fruit or veggie is bio-engineered.
ReplyDeleteIn 1993, the Aum Shrinkyo cult attempted to release anthrax spores in downtown Tokyo one month prior to the nerve gas attack. This incident marks the first instance of anthrax to be used as a weapon against a civilian population.
ReplyDeletegrapples new fruit that is gm
ReplyDeletewhen was anthrax last used...
ReplyDeleteI'll look for that the next time I go! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: 2 years ago there was a taste test held in downtown Chicago where they brought in same famous chefs and food critiques to try steak samples. After the tasting the taste critiques were told that they ate cloned meat and in shock they could not tell the difference! Would you want to know that you are eating cloned meat or foods or do you not care?
ReplyDeleteradar; when your infected does'nt mean your going to die. there are cures for infection. i had an infection and i'm still here.
ReplyDeleteResponse #5 (ElanaZ): Anthrax is used in biological weapons but can also be used in vaccines to cure adults and children. It's still used today but is potentially lethal..as a vaccine, Anthrax has great side affects like neurodamage, death, paralysis,and allergic reaction
ReplyDeleteHow do you know if you have been exposed to a bioterrorism agent?
ReplyDeletei would like to know that so at least know what im eating
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism is a intentional release of biological agents that are sent to intentionally sent to kill people. Bioterrorism consist of three groups Category A- which is a high-priority agents which cause a high risk to national security which also can be easily transmitted and take from place to place. Another group would be category B- which unlike A has a less mortality rate. The last and final group Category C- consists of massive worldwide killings caused by a bio agent. In order to stop bioterrorism we need to make the agents the terrorist use in aiding there killing harder to buy and make.
ReplyDeletei personally am not a big fan of meat, but yes, i would infact like to be warned of the substances and proudcts i place into my body
ReplyDeleteanthrax was accidently released from a biological weapon complex located near a village in the soviet union. it killed 68 people.
ReplyDeletei wouldn't care b/c if they're the same thing...there is no difference in taste so...i dont think it matters..
ReplyDeleteyou will never knnow eant 16, it is in almost everything you wat anything with artificial flavoring is altered
ReplyDeleteIn case you did not know the United States was tampering with genetically engineering people in the past, does anyone know what people they tested on and why?
ReplyDeleteeant16, Because different organisms and toxins may be used as bioterrorism agents, the suspect material must be collected for laboratory testing. These tests will be able to identify the presence of hazardous biologic agents or toxins in approximately 24-48 hours. For some agents preliminary results may be available within 4-6 hours of initiation of laboratory processing. The results will be discussed with all exposed persons as soon as they are available.
ReplyDeleteit is so scary to think about how many people can die from this...
ReplyDeleteI would want to know if I'm eating cloned food, because there might be something in it.
ReplyDeleteLike i said before. people send powders to other people that have a disease; like anthrax.Kinda like we saw in HOUSE which i HOPE we watch again Mr.Foster; in the club there was some powder and they thought the little kid got anthrax from that powder.
ReplyDeletehas it proven that genetically modified is better or worse for you?
ReplyDeleteis that what they used to do in D.C.? (send people powders)
ReplyDeletewell if you were exposed to bio terrorism you probably wouldnt know the sypmtoms range from haveing a flu like disease to feeling like you might die in order to find out if you have been exposed you would have to get test by specialist in the field of bioterrorsim and it might take weeks to get the results back
ReplyDeleteThe guy from HOUSE has such an obnoxious sense of humor
ReplyDeleteOne of the greatest scientific ventures of recent times has been the Human Genome Project. Its goal, accomplished in 2003, was to map the position of every one of the 100,000 or so genes strung out along the 23 pairs of human chromosomes.
ReplyDeletebiological weapons have been to wage war and promote terr throughtout history.
ReplyDeleteestiw....according 2 my research it seems like it has more benefits......i think it is better...
ReplyDeleteCan Genetically Engineered food be a serious risk?
ReplyDeleteMr. Foster- I totally agree with you, you really cant tell the differences between GMOs or regular food.
ReplyDeleteMitch, Genetically engineered foods containing genes derived from bacteria and viruses are now starting to appear in the shops, and foods with insect, fish, and animal genes will soon follow. These genetic changes are radically different from those resulting from traditional methods of breeding. Yet, the sale of these foods is being permitted without proper assessment of the risks and without adequately informing the public, even though many scientists say that genetically modified foods could cause serious damage to health and the environment.
ReplyDeletepeopple that had a disease
ReplyDeletealso zee terrorist use boiterrorism to gain political or social power
ReplyDeleteThe answer to my question about the United States tampering with genetically modifying people is SLAVERY. Why do you think I say that? Who knows their history?
ReplyDeleteBioterrorism, the deliberate, private use of biological agents to harm and frighten the people of a state or society, is related to the military use of biological, chemical, and nuclear weapons. Formally the use of such weapons by one state to threaten or attack another state is warfare, although such warfare may violate the laws of war, and any use of such weapons by private individuals is terrorism.
ReplyDeleteEsti i think its better for you because the genetically modified food list that i saw and wrote had mostly healthy foods exept for the chips.
ReplyDeleteikno my history mr.foster!!!!!l0l
ReplyDeletebiological agent are in artificial flavoring?
ReplyDeletei knoww my history mr.fosterr
ReplyDeleteMr. Foster wouldn't the Holcoust be consider genetically modifying people too?
ReplyDeleteresponse #5 is that they want 2 keep them living longer!
ReplyDeleteThe capital of Wyoming is Cheyenne
ReplyDeleteno becuase in the holocuast they never genetically changed someone they just tortured them
ReplyDeleteBio terrorism is The employment of living agents such as viruses, bacteria, and other biological toxins to attack or intimidate societies or governments, often for political or ideological reasons.
ReplyDeleteThe term GM foods or GMOs (genetically-modified organisms) is most commonly used to refer to crop plants created for human or animal consumption using the latest molecular biology techniques. These plants have been modified in the laboratory to enhance desired traits such as increased resistance to herbicides or improved nutritional content. The enhancement of desired traits has traditionally been undertaken through breeding, but conventional plant breeding methods can be very time consuming and are often not very accurate.
@ mitch yea, genetically modified foods pose some threats. As our text book says one that greatly concerns farmers was that what if the GM Plants that where modified to be resistant to herbicides would pass that trait off in pollen to wild plants in the area thus making at some point weeds that would be resistant to the herbicides making them useless.
ReplyDeleteThe Holocoust is not considered genetically modifying people because in genetic modification you must rearrange cells, DNA, etc. The Holocaust was an event lead by a tyrannical leader that was obsessed with power. He tried to make the perfect race using violence instead of biology
ReplyDelete@ mr foster: they were testing because they wanted them to be stronger and bigger so that they could work harder and harder. I am guessing that the slaves were cloned. I mean the hard working ones !
ReplyDeleteyea Hitler tried making the perfect race by killing off people thats not the same as genetically modifying a person
ReplyDeleteSlaves weren't cloned Taha because they didn't have the tech to do so however genetic tampering was in effect from a selective breeding stand point think of mendel's experiment
ReplyDeleteoh Ok.. I was doubting it. but according to
ReplyDeletehttp://library.thinkquest.org/20830/Frameless/Manipulating/Experimentation/Cloning/longdoc.htm
it says cloning was discovered in the lae 1800's.. I am not arguing your point... I am with you on tht
late**
ReplyDeletewhy would people genetically modify foods? I mean how does it help them? does it add flavor or something?
ReplyDeleteyou mean in 1865 when gregor mendel discovered the basic lwas of genetics thats when it all started
ReplyDeleteno the idea behind genetically modifying food is that it will be healthier
ReplyDelete@ eant 16: Yes, scientists modify plants and animals genetically. the similarity between plant and animal cloning is that both fertilize a female egg with a male from the same species.
ReplyDeletehow would it be healthier saad?
ReplyDelete@ mitch: yes, corn is a GMF.but it has brought some pollens, caterpillars and butterflies which is creating awareness among people
ReplyDeleteMr foster: If GM Plants that were modified to be resistant to herbicides would pass that trait off in pollen to wild plants in the area thus making at some point weeds that would be resistant to the herbicides making them useless.
ReplyDeleteISnt it?
Small pox was the biological agent of choice until recently where Anthrax became popular.
ReplyDeleteAnthrax was a form of bioterrorism
ReplyDeletethe use of the chemical agent orange during the vietnam war caused many soilders to get cancer or caused there kids to be born with mutations
ReplyDeleteU.s. people can easily be exposed to to to these chemicals and expose this to many other people before they even start developing symptoms
ReplyDelete
