Answer / ekwemuka michael

hink the motive behind genetic engineering is to improve
breeding of animalkinds in different forms like; heredity
mechanism, gene reshuffling
e.tc.
In hereditery mechanism, it brings about variation

in individual species. This then leads to having breeds
that are susceptible or resistance to diverse attacks; thus
ensuring the survival of the fittest.
