A student lists possible advantages and risks of GM crops. Which row pairs a genuine advantage with a genuine risk?

Answer Details

This asks for a pairing where both the stated advantage and the stated risk are genuine. The correct row gives higher yields and added vitamins as a real benefit alongside the real concern that modified genes may spread to wild plants, matching the note's point that inserted genes can escape to wild relatives. The other rows fail because their 'advantages' are biological nonsense: GM crops do not stop respiring or become non-living, and a modified crop does not have less vitamin content as a benefit.
