Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C)

The correct options are
B To monitor the effect of GMO on humans and environment
C To regulate the extent of gene manipulation

Bioethical committees aim to make decisions regarding the validity of GM research and the safety of introducing GM-organisms for public services. They also regulate the use and distribution of a GMO after considering its effect on humans and the environment as a whole. They regulate the extent of gene manipulation so that genetic information is not used as a weapon in bio-warfare.
