With the advancements in the genetic engineering, many concerns are raising day by day on the usage of this technology. Two of the ethical concerns are:

1) The field of genetic engineering allows parents to know the disorders that will arise in the up-coming baby that they will have. As a result, a fetus that is not normal will be aborted by the parents. This action is considered unethical as it comes under killing.

2) The advancements in genetic engineering led to the sequencing of the entire human genome. Scientists suspect that cloning a human will lead to unethical situations like more crime scenes.
