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.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
