Biotechnology Quizzes & Trivia

We’ve got a couple of elements here that you can use in order to create something more useful. What we have are a handful of questions that we need you to take a look at and then transform into something better such as correct answers. Take care, though, because we only have a limited number and we need as many right answers as possible.

Take a look at some of them to get an idea: When is the term biotechnology believed to have been coined? What are the basic areas of medicine where biotechnology is applied today? What is the basic purpose when obtaining genetically modified crops? Approximately how much of the world’s crop lands were planted with GM crops in 2010? Become a biotechnology expert with our most recent trivia right now.
