The right answer is Transgenic organisms can produce a desired product that may benefit other organisms.

A transgenic organism contains DNA combining stably integrated in all its cells. In other words, the organism, be it a plant, an animal or a microorganism, has a new piece of DNA embedded in it. a chromosome in each of its cells. This "new piece" of DNA usually contains a gene from another organism (plant, animal or other) that has been modified to be expressed in the new organization. A transgenic organism may even possess the DNA of another organism of the same species. The inserted gene can be called the transgene.

Currently, diabetics are treated by injecting insulin from either a healthy human donor or cultures of genetically modified (transgenic) bacteria that secrete the protein.

The negative effects of single point origin is deteriorating water quality which damage the environment, health conditions.

Destruction of biodiversity is another negative effect of water pollution depletes aquatic ecosystems and prompt unbridled proliferation of phytoplankton in lakes called as eutrophication.

The solution to reduce water pollution is reduce carbon dioxide emissions to prevent global warming and acidification of the oceans. Another is to reduce the use of chemical pesticides and nutrients on crops.
