Which is a disadvantage of the genetically engineered potatoes

The question lacks options, the options are:

A) They are easier to transport and store than injectable vaccines (shots).

B) They make it easier to administer edible vaccines.

C) They are more expensive than potatoes without the vaccine.

D) They have nutritional value while potatoes without the vaccine do not.

Thw answer is C

Explanation:

Agricultural crops have faced series of problems caused by pest, nutrient composition etc. However, technology has made sure they these problems are reduced in the least possible way via the use of genetic engineering. Genetic engineering, also called genetic modification is the manipulation of an organism's genes using biotechnology procedures.

In this case, the potato crop was genetically modified, meaning that, the crop was improved genetically. Although, this process has many advantages like inserting a vaccine in the edible crop and easy storage, it also has disadvantages. One of these disadvantages as mentioned in the options is that they become more expensive than potatoes without the vaccine. The price increases due to the vaccines they now contain in comparison to the potatoes without vaccine (not genetically modified).

This price can become not affordable for an average person. Hence, it is a disadvantage of the genetically modified potato crop

it takes hundreds of years to become stable.

if you have another question lmk.
