There are a lot of concerns and benefits with biotechnology. The benefits is that it can increase the functionality of an organism, or even repair an organism or even help the organism. The downside, for example, is before-birth alteration of genes. For example, if a mother wants her child to be a girl and for her eyes to be green, one could say that that is morally wrong. Another concern is with businesses. For example, a scientist makes a breakthrough that replaces workers at car companies to be replaced with robots, thus taking way jobs of those people. It is more of a matter of what is not wrong or right in biotechnology.

lozanna [386]
Because if we're simultaneously moving/manipulating two different variables it can be very hard to determine why one variable is changing and why the other is changing. While this can be done with more complicated experimental designs, it usually is the case that scientists will only manipulate one variable and not two different ones.
