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

making crops resistant to pesticides by inserting a gene from another organism.

This involves altering the genetic material of the organism, which is a key characteristic of genetic modification. The other options involve traditional breeding techniques rather than direct genetic modification.
