Answer :
Genetic engineering is important to the scientific community because A)
Genetic engineering provides crops that are less expensive to grow. One
of the biggest problems that the world may face in the near future is a
food supply shortage due to the increasing exponential growth of the
population. Genetic engineering provides crops that are more hearty,
larger and less expensive to grow that may be the answer to mounting
future problems. The ability to manipulate plants in the lab makes
altering their growth pattern a much faster change than many years of
natural selection in the farm and field.
