Question

A scientist attends an annual conference hosted by the american society of agricultural and biological engineers. at which type of event is he most likely to hear an organized debate about genetically modified corn?

Answer 1

I believe the answer is: panel discussion.

In a panel discussion,we put several speakers who held a certain level of credibility regarding the topic and give the audiences the chance to publicly debate their questions or opinion regarding the topic. This type of discussion is mostly used to delve in politics, new/upcoming scientific development, or the problems that involve general well being of the community as a whole.
