Question 3 • CSD Summer 2026 Human Geography

Which of the following statements best characterizes a difference between GM food and organically grown food?

Answer
A
GM food tastes better than organically grown food.
B
GM food is improved by synthetic means, while organically grown food is improved by natural means.
C
GM food is popular in Europe, while organically grown food is popular in the United States.
D
Studies have shown GM food to be more nutritious than organically grown food.

Explanation

Genetically modified (GM) food is produced by deliberately changing an organism’s genetic material using biotechnology. Organic food is grown under standards that emphasize natural farming methods and limit many synthetic inputs. Thus, choice B best describes the difference; taste, popularity, and nutrition are not defining distinctions between the two.
