Show summary

Consumer advocate: Some agricultural crops are now being genetically engineered to produce important pharmaceuticals. ████████ ████ ███████████ ██████ ███ ███████████ ████ ███ █████ ████ ███ ██ ██ ███ ███████ ████ ███████ █████ ██ ██████ ████ █ ██████████████ ████ ██████ ████ █ ██████ █████ ██ █████ ██ █████████ ██████████████████ ████ ██ ███ ████ ███████ ██ █████ ██████ ███ ██████ █████ █████████ ████ ████ ███ ████ ██ ████ █ ██████████████ ████ ██ █████

Summarize Argument: Phenomenon-Hypothesis

A Consumer Advocate hypothesizes that genetically engineered foods produced for pharmaceuticals raise the likelihood that these drugs will end up in the general food supply. This is because drug-producing plants can pollinate nearby non-drug-producing plants, thus converting them into drug-producers.

Notable Assumptions

The Consumer Advocate assumes that non-drug-producing plants that are converted will not be removed from the food supply.

The author also assumes that the genetic areas impacted by the drug-producing plants are parts that are harvested and eventually enter the food supply
