Question 27 • * SY2025-26 - 2002070 M/J Comprehensive Science 2 Sem 1 CR
Cloning makes a genetically identical copy of an existing organism, so it would not introduce a new trait such as larger fruit. Genetic engineering changes an organism’s genetic material to produce desired traits, and the resulting organism is not necessarily genetically identical to the original. Therefore, the best reason is that genetic engineering does not result in genetically identical organisms.
