LIFE SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -Biotechnology has applications in four major industrial areas, including health care (medical), crop production and agriculture, non food (industrial) uses of crops and other products (e.g. biodegradable plastics, vegetable oil, biofuels), and environmental uses.

Detailed explanation-2: -Biotechnology is a constantly evolving field of science. Although it has many benefits-including lowering our environmental footprint, and helping treat disease and illness-it doesn’t come without its disadvantages. The four main concerns revolve around ethical, safety, bioterrorism and environmental issues.

Detailed explanation-3: -Biotechnology is particularly important in the field of medicine, where it facilitates the production of therapeutic proteins and other drugs. Synthetic insulin and synthetic growth hormone and diagnostic tests to detect various diseases are just some examples of how biotechnology is impacting medicine.
