Question

Scientists have genetically engineered potato plants to produce potatoes that contain edible vaccines. Which is a disadvantage of the genetically engineered potatoes? They are easier to transport and store than injectable vaccines (shots). They make it easier to administer edible vaccines. They are more expensive than potatoes without the vaccine. They have nutritional value while potatoes without the vaccine do not.

Answer 1

Answer: They are more expensive than potatoes without the vaccine.

The genetically modified crops are produced by using the scientific procedures of genetic engineering. It involves the manipulation of the genome of these crops so as to make them disease resistant, improving the quality of the edible parts and increasing the yield of the plants. The crops are genetically modified with accuracy, precision and implementation of the technology therefore, the crops produced are expensive then the crops produce by the conventional method.

Hence, they are more expensive than potatoes without the vaccine is a disadvantage of the genetically engineered potato plants to produce potatoes that contain edible vaccines.

Answer 2

Okay, so I'm not sure, but I think its they are more expensive than potatoes without the vaccine.

I hope this helps.
