GMOs, or genetically modified organisms, are living organisms whose genetic material has been altered through genetic engineering techniques.
This modification can involve the insertion, deletion, or modification of specific genes to introduce desired traits such as resistance to pests, tolerance to herbicides, or improved nutritional content.
Vitamin A deficiency causes?

Nervous diseases
blindness
AIDS
