  • Essay / The Ethics of Genetic Engineering - 1437

    The ProblemGenetic engineering has been around since the 1960s, although major experiments were not really noticed until the 1990s. Science comes in different forms, both The main ones being cloning and genetic reconstruction. Cloning involves duplicating an organism and making an exact copy of it. For example, in 1996, the creation of the clone sheep named Dolly the first cloned mammal, which was a great achievement. The other form, genetic reconstruction, is used to replace genes in humans to help or improve the life of an unborn child for a medical reason or simply a parent's preference. Before its use on humans, it was used on crops to improve livestock to increase the taste size and many other desirable traits of foods to make them more attractive to consumers and to make them easier to grow in certain weather conditions and also to resist the pesticides necessary to save crops. There is no evidence of the long-term effects of genetic engineering. People are concerned about the effects of eating genetically modified crops on their health, and because of their concerns, the Organic Trade Association does not allow genetically modified crops. It's an idea that hasn't been taken very seriously in recent decades and has only been observed as an extremely imaginative miracle, beyond the reach of scientists' past. Now this idea has become a very real process that seems to be a dream come true for those who see it as a miracle cure, but a nightmare for those who see it as spitting on God's work and telling him that he is now obsolete in the part of human life dealing with procreation. The Benefits DNA reconstruction has provided many cures for genetic diseases that were previously undetectable. Although it is not a cure... middle of paper ...... new ways to treat other diseases like cancer genes that may soon be stopped before they even start. The changes this could bring are amazing, there really is no reason to stop learning more about healing the human body. Works cited Citations from works “Genetic engineering”. 123HelpMe.com.
