Question:

The crops engineered for glyphosate are resistant/tolerant to Bacteria, Herbicides, Insects, or Fungi?

Insects

Herbicides

Bacteria

Fungi

Solution:

A genetically engineered crop for tolerating herbicides contains glyphosate because it interferes with many metabolic processes in plants and animals and disrupts the balance of gut bacteria; it damages DNA and leads to cancer. This genetic modification protects the desired crops from unwanted chemical herbicides.
