Explain the advantages of asexual
reproduction for insulin production by genetic engineering.

ADVANTAGES
1. Biotechnologically produced insulin is indistinguishable from human insulin produced in the pancreas and therefore, is less likely to cause allergic reactions in diabetics.
2. Large quantities of insulin can be produced at the same time.

DISADVANTAGES
1. Some diabetics complain of an increase in episodes of hypoglycemic complications 5.
2. The production cost tends to be high.
