Recombinant DNA technology

Explain phenomenon that why the recombinant DNA technology and nucleus transplantation technology are still dangerous?

E

Expert

Verified

The recombinant DNA technology and nucleus transplantation technology are tremendously dangerous as they are capable to alter, in the very short time, the ecological balance which the evolution has taken millions of the years to create upon the planet. At the time of evolutionary process, under slow and gradual action of the mutations, genetic recombination and of the natural selection species emerged and were modified and the genetic patrimonies were made. With the genetic engineering though the humans may mix and alter the genes, forming the changes of unpredictable long term consequences, risking creating the new plant or animal diseases, new disease outbreaks and new types of cancers. It is the field as potentially dangerous as manipulation of the nuclear energy.
