of how genetic engineering affects human development. Whether it is practiced to lengthen the lifespan of a living organism or make considerable improvements in agriculture, medicine or other fields, there are still lots of debates regarding its application in the real world landscape. Even so, prohibiting the successive evolution of genetic engineering is not a solution, and I do not agree that its further development should be banned. First of all, as stated above, the scope of genetic engineering
The Pros and Cons of Genetically Modified Foods Genetic modification is a biological technique that effects alterations in the genetic machinery of all kinds of living organisms. GMO is defined as “Organisms (i.e. plants, animals or microorganisms) in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally by mating and/or natural recombination” (WHO, 2016). Genetically modified foods can be traced through history. The first genetically modified plants – antibiotic
solution is found. Genetically modified food could be the answer the world is looking for. In this report the topic of genetically modified foods and whether or not it is a solution or a disaster in the making shall be explored. Genetic modification has its pros and cons. The advantages include a decrease in food prices. This is because crops will be easier, more advanced and less costly to produce therefore decreasing the cost of the final product. It is more economically efficient as it does not
