Question

which of the following is not a possible result of genetic engineering on organisms? (1 point)
animals can infect and spread their genetic modifications to other animals via contact
inserting genes from another organism can pass allergens into the new gmo
crops can become herbicide resistant to more easily kill off surrounding weeds
we can breed for specific traits by pairing organisms with that desired trait together

Explanation:

Genetic engineering involves direct manipulation of an organism's genome. The option "We can breed for specific traits by pairing organisms with that desired trait together" describes traditional breeding, not genetic engineering. Genetic engineering is more about inserting or modifying specific genes rather than just breeding based on visible traits.

Answer:

We can breed for specific traits by pairing organisms with that desired trait together.
