Janelle thinks that genetic engineering could be used to make a larger fruit rather than cloning the fruit. Which would best support her point of view? A. Genetic engineering does not cost as much.
B. Genetic engineering does not result in genetically identical organisms. C. Genetically engineered foods never cause allergies in people. D. Genetically engineered foods have not been modified.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."

garbage disposal because lysosomes dispose of old cell parts like garbage disposals dispose of old food.
