Solution

The correct answers are:

  • Offer increased yields compared to traditional open-pollinated crops
  • Are often modified for pest resistance using the Bt gene
  • Usually do not taste as good as traditional crop varieties

The first statement is not necessarily true because the creation of food surpluses depends on many factors, not just the use of hybridized crops.
