Answer 2

The correct answer is B. An ethical issue that many people today is debating is genetic engineering.

Genetic engineering is the direct manipulation of the genes of an organism using biotechnology to modify genes, eliminate them or duplicate them.

Genetic engineering can pose serious ethical problems. There are very diverse opinions about where the limits of manipulation of the material that is at the base of all vital processes must be placed.

At the beginning of the recombinant DNA experiments, several researchers showed their concern about the risks that can be performed with these techniques. In several countries, committees were created to discuss the use and application of genetic engineering techniques.
