Answer:

B) genetically modified.

Step-by-step explanation:

Genetically modified foods are foods that are produced from organisms with DNA that has been modified through genetic engineering. This results in food that is more appetizing, more high-yielding or more resistant than food that has not been modified. This type of food is created in such a way in order for breeders to have better control over the positive traits of the organisms. These methods are similar to the more traditional selective breeding and mutation breeding.
