Abstract:
Synthetic biology is an intercrossed scientific branch rapidly developing in recent years,whose progresses would bring the technology of synthesizing or making life into reality.It would have magnificent implication for economic development and studying the fundamental rules of biology,but it will also bring ethical problems as well as anxiety for possible potential threat.This paper considers that making life is justifiable ethically,but the whole process must be strictly controlled and effectively supervised.
