Answer:

Due to the cost and resource input (specially the land) required for producing ethanol

Explanation:

In current time most of the ethanol is produced by fermenting corn, sugarcane or other plants at high temperature. In this process of fermentation, liquid bio fuel is produced.  

These plants and crops require large area for cultivation and production along with huge inputs of fertilizers and water. As per an estimate , 3 gallons of ethanol require bushel of corn that intakes 800 gallons of water which is a huge cost to any nation or individual

I believe that all the above are ethical concerns regarding genetic engineering. Ethics is the study of moral or socially acceptable behavior.

There are many ethical concerns regarding genetic engineering in plants, animals, and humans. One of the ethical concerns regarding genetically modified plants used for food is whether the nutritional value will be sacrificed in favor of a higher yield or drought resistantancy.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

C) The pea plant would be shorter with more branches compared to wild-type plants.

Explanation:

Gibberellic acid stimulates the stem growth by promoting elongation and cell division, so having this compound's gene underexpressed will make the plant shorter. On the other hand, cytokinins are located in young cells, particularly the buds, and stimulates its lateral growth. Having a plant with a overexpressed cytokinins gene will make the plant have more branches compared to wild-type plants.
