To determine: Whether very short children should receive recombinant human growth hormone (HGH) to reach their average height.
Introduction: The
b.
To determine: Whether genetically modified foods be labeled in grocery stores.
Introduction: The biotechnology industry uses methods of recombinant DNA technology to produce clones of plants and animals. The diagnosis and treatment of human diseases, agriculture, the justice system, and biomedical research are various fields which are being revolutionized with the help of biotechnology. Various social and ethical issues are being raised by this field which needs to be addressed and resolved.
