75% of all food in grocery stores contains GMO or genetically modified organisms. Genetic modification also known as Genetic Engineering is the direct manipulation of an organism's genes uses one of the newest technologies called biotechnology. Now there are ways to make tomatoes and strawberries to improve the taste and help couples have the ability to design and create the perfect baby they've always dreamt of. There have been concerns and debates over genetic engineering but genetic engineering is valuable and can change many lives of both people and animals. Genetic engineering increased the yields of agricultural produce, help animals live better and create medicine and organs for organ transplants. Even Though many say that Genetic Engineering …show more content…
It is a known fact to this day that organ transplants are not available since supply for healthy organs such as kidneys and hearts are so rare and not easily obtainable considering the demand for it. Even if they receive an organ there is only a 5% chance of the body accepting the organ as its own. With the help of genetic modification, the demand for organs needed to perform organ transplants might be the answer to this problem. Now there will not be any more problems for transplants now scientists can just use the Genetically Modified organ needed to perform the surgery and also the organ that is perfect for the patient. Another way genetical engineering can be used is in the production of some human therapeutic proteins which is used to treat a variety of diseases and help with the immune systems to fight off disease. These proteins are hard and costly to manufacture with the help of genetic engineering the production would be way easier and much more cost-effective. It can also help create a new protein that was unable to be created before which can cure a disease that is identified as deadly or
