Question

Genetic information has become part of our culture and it is difficult to tell the difference between unmodified and genetically modified food sources such as plant and animals. After reading this module’s material regarding vectors in biotechnology, consider the potential for nanotechnology and scientific advancement. Research nanotechnology and its potential use in biotechnology. In one or two paragraphs, explain the potential advantages and disadvantages of nanotechnology in health care, agriculture, or industry and discuss whether you would or would not support further research?

Answer 1

Answer:

Nanotechnology has bring up major advances in our everyday life. For example, the use of Nanobots that are extensively used now a days in medicine to make surgeries faster and accurate. By the use of nanotechnology, major problems like cancer can be treated by using cell by cell therapy. It is also utilized in curing genetic defects. Major drug designing and drug delivery has been made easier using nanotechnology.

Nanotechnology doesn't have any visible disadvantages but there always remains a fear like introduction of some extra contaminants and toxins in the environment. But mostly i agree with use of nanotechnology for the betterment. Furthermore we don't have any more advance techniques to fight problems than this technology.
