No.
Scientists, are working on being able to genetically alter animals for further needs.
genetic crossbreeding and genetic modification. They genetically alter its DNA

People prefer to eat foods that are not genetically engineered because the long term effects of eating genetically engineered plants is unknown.
GMO stands for a Genetically Modified Organism.

By far the characteristic that is most often genetically engineered into crop plants is resistance to herbicides, with engineering crops to produce a substance that kills insects into the plant itself a close second.
When plants, especially crop plants. are genetically engineered they are completely uniform in all characteristics. They have no genetic diversity. If the crop should be attacked by pests that it has no defense for, all will be affected and perhaps die, and the crop would be totally worthless.
Yes, absolutely.
1. Genetically alter plants2. Repair damaged genes 3. Manufacture proteins
