Question

there are environmental concerns surrounding the products that have been genetically engineered for particular traits, including pharmaceuticals, crops, and enzymes that are used in industry and manufacturing processes. which is an environmental concern that affects society?

○ patented products
○ bioaccumulation
○ infertility
○ cancer

Explanation:

Bioaccumulation is an environmental concern. It refers to the accumulation of substances (like toxins) in living organisms. This can have cascading effects through food chains and impact entire ecosystems and societies. Patented products are more of an intellectual - property and economic concern. Infertility and cancer, while serious health issues, are not directly environmental concerns that affect society in the broad, ecosystem - wide sense like bioaccumulation. Bioaccumulation can lead to problems such as contaminated food sources for large populations, affecting public health on a societal scale.

Answer:

bioaccumulation
