Explanation:

Incorrect- Pro 2: Can create organisms that survive in any environment

This is non-beneficial; it may enable non-native invasive species to thrive in previously uninhabitable environments by out-competing native species. This negatively affects the biodiversity of the ecological community.

Further Explanation:

Genetically modified organisms (GM) about their DNA altered or changed through the process of genetic engineering typically GMOs have DNA changes via the addition of genes from all organisms such as plants, bacteria, viruses and animals. These are referred to as transgenic organisms, which contribute to several innovations

  • an increase in global food security which is the availability of food for the entire population.
  • genetically modified food is thought to be more consistent in nutritional value and flavor, resistant to adverse weather such as droughts. these can be pest resistant, and should reduce the usage of herbicides and pesticides-this should increase crop yield and make production more efficient.  
  • transgenic organisms contain genes that enable antibody production and disease resistance in humans which can be used developing new medicines.
