Answer to Question 1

Genetic engineering may make it possible for a machine to pick strawberries by developing strawberry plants that grow taller, with berries that grow on longer stems and are not so fragile. This will make it simpler for engineers to build machines that can pick strawberries.

Answer to Question 2

The two main problems with using bacteria to make drugs include:

1 . Expensive factory and laboratory facilities must be built in order to obtain the drugs.
2 . The process of purification takes a lot of time and effort, as well as expense.
