Because
of new development of science, Genetic engineering has its own advantages; disease
could be prevented by detecting people/plants/animals that are genetically
prone to certain hereditary diseases, and preparing for the
inevitable. Also, infectious diseases can be treated by implanting genes that
code for antiviral proteins specific to each antigen. Animals and plants can be
'tailor made' to show desirable characteristics. Genes could also be
manipulated in trees for example, to absorb more CO2 and reduce the threat of global
warming. Genetic Engineering could increase genetic diversity, and produce more
variant alleles which could also be crossed over and implanted into other
species. It is possible to alter the genetics of wheat plants to grow insulin
for example.
