Genetic engineering has been used in the production of insulin, vaccines, and antibodies. Even with so many positive applications of genetic engineering, there are some notable concerns. Which of these is NOT a concern related to genetic engineering?
Genes engineered to make a plant resistant to pests, disease, and herbicides may transfer to undesired species, creating unusually robust weeds.
Genetic engineering can be used to produce plants that are more resistant to insects, fungi, and bacteria.
There are ethical and social concerns regarding the potential blending of animal and human DNA as well as the social and legal controls that should be placed on research.
There are health concerns related to GMOS, including that idea that genetically engineered vegetables may contain genes that could transfer to humans when ingested, producing mutations.
