True, DNA is DNA, it matters not wether or not it belongs to a plant, you could mix a carrot with a pig (not sure why you would, but you can)

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Genetically modified foods can contain genes of interest. This gene of interest can be any other organism which can be related or cannot be related to the organism.

The two different types of genes (one of the organism and other is the gene of interest) present inside the genetically modified organism will replicate inside the organism to produce desired product.
