The action that is an example of genetic modification (creating GMOs) is:

making crops that are resistant to pesticides and insects.

This involves directly altering the genetic material of the crops to give them these specific traits, which is characteristic of genetic modification. The other options involve traditional breeding or husbandry methods, which do not involve altering the genetic structure of the organisms at a molecular level.
