Despite their benefits, biotechnological processes can pose significant risks and ethical concerns. Some of these include:
Genetic Modification: The creation of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) has sparked debates over their safety and long-term impact on ecosystems and human health. Bioterrorism: The potential misuse of biotechnological techniques to create harmful biological agents poses a serious security threat. Ethical Issues: Manipulating genetic material raises moral questions, particularly in areas like human cloning and stem cell research.
