Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The genetically engineered proteins are less harmful than normal human proteins. The genetically engineered proteins can be produced in large quantities with less cost. Please save your changes before editing any questions.
Detailed explanation-2: -Recombinant DNA is a technology scientists developed that made it possible to insert a human gene into the genetic material of a common bacterium. This “recombinant” micro-organism could now produce the protein encoded by the human gene.
Detailed explanation-3: -GM bacteria are used in the production of enzymes such as milk-clotting enzymes for cheese production and food/feed additives such as aspartame and l-lysine.
