Solution
GMO stands for Genetically Modified Organism. It differs from a hybrid because in a hybrid, cross is done between total genomes of two species or strains, whereas in a GMO, foreign gene(s) is introduced in the organism, and is usually maintained as the extra-chromosomal entity or is integrated into the genome of the organism.
