Try to cover the following points: describe some examples of genetic engineering such as vitamin A and carrots, human insulin, improving crops; explain the advantages of genetic engineering; explain the disadvantages of genetic engineering; explain how genetic engineering is similar to selective breeding; explain how genetic engineering is different from selective breeding; decide whether or not selective breeding has similar advantages and disadvantages; Extension Include in your presentation: how genes are transferred from one organism to another; the moral and ethical issues of genetic modification; a debate on whether or not the benefits outweigh the moral and ethical issues; Start by carrying out an Internet search and place any useful information into a word processing document.
