The document describes a hypothetical scenario where a student is given the chance to genetically modify a plant trait. It lists 5 potential genetically modified organisms with enhanced traits, including grapes with larger fruits to supply greater food demand, oranges with diverse citrus flavors in one fruit for an exciting taste experience, strawberries with natural stripes adding visual appeal, roses with multi-colored petals in a single flower perfect for bouquets, and seedless rambutan fruit for a more convenient eating experience. The document outlines the process of considering the special trait, source and target organisms, added trait, and potential benefits to society for each genetically modified organism.

Enrichment Activity 2: Designer Genes

1. Hypothetically, you are given the chance to enhance/modify a trait of


certain plant/crop. These are the things that you will consider to make a
genetically modified organism (GMO);

a. Identify special trait.

b. Identify a source organism

c. Identify a target organism

d. Identify the modified/added trait

e. What benefit/s would the recombinant organism provide to society?
