It is helpfull to reduce the harmfull mosquitos which are major cause for spreading of various disease dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya, and Zika diseases that immiserate millions. these techniques are
Oxitec's GM mosquitoes, which interbreed with wild mosquitoes to produce unviable offspring — causing populations to crash.
opposition.
It will tough to stop the outbreak Zika without limiting the spread of Aedes aegypti, which can breed in all sorts of small nooks and crannies in our cities.
Critics raise the potential consequences to human health and the environment of releasing GMO mosquitoes without more long-term research, arguing that the risks are too high even amid a global health crisis.

Genetics & Society: Genetic Technology: Pick a genetic technology other than genetically modified foods and some application for this technology. What will be the likely benefit or risks involved in this application? Should we use it why or why not? Does the fact that the application involves genetics give some special or unique ethical feature we should be interested in?

based on article by Adler Smithsonian “Kill All the Mosquitoes” 2016 Why is Anopheles gambiae considered to be the most dangerous organism in the world? What are some of the ways that we are trying to control mosquitoes? Do you think we should wipe out an entire species of mosquito just because it carries diseases that are life-threatening to humans?

Promoters of genetically modified organisms often make the remark that humans have been genetically modifying organisms for millennia, through artificial selection and breeding techniques. Detractors,however, argue that there is a qualitative difference between selective breeding and genetic modification, and that this difference is important enough to cause great concern. Write an essay that will compare and contrast artificial selection and genetic engineering of crops. Your thesis should either argue that genetic modification is merely an extension of an ancient process,...

The Synthetic Future Genetically modified organisms (GMO) are not new. According to the USDA, in 2009, 93 percent of soy, 93 percent of cotton, and 86 percent of corn grown in the United States was GMO. However, in 2010, life on earth as we currently understand it, changed. By inserting com- puter-designed genetic material into a bacterial cell, scientists created an entirely new strain of bacteria, a new life form, the world's first synthetic cell. In announcing his creation, scientist...

In early 2014, Chipotle Mexican Grill announced that it would stop using genetically modified ingredients (GMOs) in its restaurants. Many observers applauded this move. However, critics of the fast-food chain cited a lack of evidence to support its anti-GMO stance. They suspected that Chipotle’s anti-GMO claim was simply a ploy to distract consumers from a larger issue: the company’s risky sanitation practices. Chipotle’s anti-GMO policies may have won the burrito chain some health-conscious customers, but at the same time customers...
