The correct option is this: INCREASING ONE QUALITY IN A FOOD CROP MAY DEGRADE OTHER QUALITIES.
Genetically engineered food crops usually have various minerals and nutrients added to them in order to make them more nutritious. The disadvantage of this is that, increasing the concentration of a particular nutrient in the crop may negatively affect the presence and effects of the other nutrients present in the crop.
