Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) increase production while reducing environmental impacts.</em>

Explanation:

Although the usage of GM crops has its own benefits, yet there are certain problems related to GM crops which cannot be ignored. One such problem is that by producing GM crops we are reducing the genetic diversity of certain crops. Such cases can be disastrous as there will be no genetic diversity present if disastrous conditions such as a disease occur.

However, GM crops are beneficial as they can increase the production of a crop with enhanced characteristics.
