As we practice being able to describe choices in Biology you will use this consolidation task to organize details about the advantages and disadvantages of biotechnologies. In an ideal world, all solutions to improving our food system would have no negative consequences. But issues in Biology involve the interaction of many different factors and changes in one factor can lead to side effects in the others. Decisions should be made by weighing the best evidence for and against a particular choice of biotechnology.

Because you'll be evaluating biotechnology you will definitely want to show your understanding of changes in gene expression
