Doctors are not in favour of gene therapy because :

  • A.Sweet foods give energy to the body.
  • B.It is poisonous.
  • C.People will feel guilty after going through it.
  • D.It will enhance sugar levels in the body.

Answer: A

Doctors are against gene therapy because sweet foods give energy to the body.

Paragraph 3 says: 'Doctors warn against any form of gene therapy which seeks to deactivate the sweet gene. "We have produced this gene through evolution because sweet foods in nature are not poisonous, they give us energy. We all need to have some sugar in our diet"'. Switching the gene off would work against something the body needs.

The passage says sweet foods are not poisonous. The guilt mentioned is the chocoholics' guilt about chocolate, not a result of therapy. Nothing is said about the therapy raising sugar levels.
