improved the production of food by making plants tolerant or resistant to drought‚ frost‚ insects and viruses and also helped plants to compete more effectively against weeds for soil nutrients. The use of genetic engineering however has raised concerns about its potential risks to human life and the environment. The yield‚ the use of nutritive substances and resistance to diseases can be improved on the contrary the negative effects of genetic engineering on plants should be considered. What does genetic

A few pros would have to be‚ Foods can be modified to have more essential vitamins and nutrients‚ or simply taste better. By doing this‚ the increase in variety‚ and convenience for foods allows others to get their needed vitamins‚ and nutrients from just plants rather than having to buy supplements.

Study shows disadvantages of GM foods to human health British scientific researchers demonstrated that genetically modified DNA from crops can find its way into human gut bacteria‚ raising possible health concerns. This is because antibiotic-resistant marker genes are inserted with GM material‚ which could cause a person to be resistant to antibiotic medicines. The study was conducted at Newcastle University on seven human volunteers who‚ in the past‚ had their lower intestine removed and now use
