Which of the following is not an important element of the political/legal segment of the general environment?
a) tort reform
b) genetic engineering
c) Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
d) deregulation of utilities and other industries

Respuesta :

Answer: genetic engineering

Explanation:

Tort reform has to do with the ideas that are out in place so as to change laws regarding civil justice system in order for tort litigation to be decreased.

Americans with Disabilities Act was put in place to ensure that people that have disabilities are not discriminated. Also, deregulation is used to increase competition which will lead to greater efficiency, lower costs and also lower prices for good and services. All the above are political/legal segment of the general environment.

Genetic engineering simply means using biotechnology to manipulate the gene of an of an organism. This is not part of the legal or political segment.
