Briefly describe three real-life examples of genetic engineering that are occurring right now? (hint: look for crops or livestock) Select one of the three and describe any controversy surrounding it:--what the supporters think, and what the critics think. What do you think about this particular example? What do you think about genetic engineering in general?

Production of insulin through Chinese hamster ovary cells Transferring cold resistant genes to strawberries to make a cold-resistant strawberry Roundup Ready Soybeans are made- they are soybeans that contain a pest-resistant gene @NathalyN
that is for the first question or all of them,?????
oh ok then hold on sec @NathalyN
there are 4 questions and each need an answer!?
A great example of genetic modification put to use in the real world is golden rice. Their is a great wikipedia artical on golden rice but basically, their was a huge vitamin A problem in east asia, so scientists introduced the Beta carotene gene from carrots into rice. Beta carotene can be broken down into Vitamin A and absorbed easily. As far as i know golden rice is still in use today. The controversy's are fairly obvious. Religious supporters believe that we should not be "playing god" and tampering with natural food sources. Their is also the worry of long term medical consequences. @NathalyN
this is the answer for the 4 questions right????

can you see causet his HW has 30 points
