Pros of GMO:

They are "perfect" in theory

Most likely won't have any diseases or infections

Genetically modified so everything will be almost exactly the way people want it to be

Pros of Breeding:

Definitely more organic and healthy (i guess)

More authentic - they're the "real stuff"

People might feel safer when eating organic stuff

Answer:

Explanation:

The other helper already provides a lot of info on the two different methods. I will add that a person might choose to use selective breeding over genetic modification because it does not require any advance technology or sophisticated laboratory. On the other hand a person might choose to create a GMO over a selectively bred organism because it will take less time to get results.
