Explanation:
Transgenic organisms (plants or animals) have been genetically modified to contain and express foreign DNA (a transgene) from another species. Cloning is a technique used to produce genetically identical copies of a biological entity, such as a cell, organism, or DNA sequence. Gene therapy is an emerging technique aimed at treating or curing genetic diseases by introducing functional genes, but it is still largely experimental and does not currently cure all genetic diseases. Thus, statements 1 and 2 are correct.
