Answer:

The correct answer would be C) crops may cause an increase of allergic reactions in humans.

Transgenic crops are the crops in which the genome is modified through genetic engineering techniques. It usually involves the introduction of a gene from different species which provide desired traits such as disease resistance, high nutrition value et cetera.

Due to genetic modification, the crops may act cause disease or allergic reactions in humans.  

Our body may produce immunogenic or allergic reaction towards the genetically modified crops.
