I noticed that there are many questions asking advantages/disadvantages... so here it goes:

3 Advantages of IVF (Fertility treatment)
-Helps with infertility
-
-
3 Disadvantages of IVF (Fertility treatment)
- Can result in multiple pregnancy
-
-
3 Advantages of Contraception
- Controls human population in less developed countries
-
-
3 Disadvantages of Contraception
-Interferes with the nature
-
-
3 Advantages of Genetic Engineering
- We can make useful(?) plants/animals to suit our needs (?)
-
-
3 Disadvantages of Genetic Engineering
- Might cause unknown problems in the future (GM food)
-
-
3 Advantages of Cloning
- Economic benefit
-
-
3 Disadvantages of Cloning
- Reduce gene pool
-
-
these are the only ones I can think of!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
will someone please help me and fill in those blanks?? I can't think of anything else :frown:

3 Advantages of IVF (Fertility treatment)
-Helps with infertility
-hormones are given before egg collection to stimulate egg production
-oestrogen and progesterone are given to makethe implantation more succesful

3 Disadvantages of IVF (Fertility treatment)
- Can result in multiple pregnancy
-some women have strong reaction to them which can result into abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting
-increases risk of cancer.

3 Advantages of Contraception
- Controls human population in less developed countries.
-the embryo can be taken and made into embroynic stem cell to help people with their diseases.
-?

3 Disadvantages of Contraception
-Interferes with the nature
-moral/ethical issues.
-the embryo is destroyed

3 Advantages of Genetic Engineering
- We can make useful plants/animals to suit our needs
-genetic disorders can be cured by inserting working genes.
-we can make more food with genetic engineering.

3 Disadvantages of Genetic Engineering
- Might cause unknown problems in the future (GM food)
-its not natural
-reduce biodiversity.

3 Advantages of Cloning
- Economic benefit
-only ideal offspring will be produced.
-can help to cure various diseases.

3 Disadvantages of Cloning
- Reduce gene pool
-unethical/moral issues
-embroys are destroyed

hope this helps. i have this exam today aswell . good luck :smile:

I have some issues with someone of what you've written, which I've colour coded and addressed:

What you've written here isn't an advantage of IVF, it's just describing what happens.

That's nothing to do with contraception. With contraception there is no production of an embryo. Possibly what you meant is that extra embryos created by IVF can be used for stem cell research.

Again, with contraception there is no embryo created, so no embryo is destroyed.

Where did you get that from? I'm not actually sure about this, but my initial thought would have been that that's incorrect.
