In the United States, government regulations require researchers to contain experimental genetically engineered organisms inside a laboratory and to ensure that the organisms could not survive outside the laboratory. Why do you think these strict regulations are necessary? Gene Technology Chapter Review. 37 R. H. Beeman Vocabulary 11.1 Rev 11.2 Rev 11.3 Rev Ch 11 Rev 2008-03-14 The regulations were prompted by concerns that genetically engineered organisms might cause disease or have harmful effects on the environment. By limiting their survival outside the laboratory, scientists are preventing the organism from possibly harming people or other organisms and interfering in food chains.
