The passage discusses the challenges of regulating innovations in biotechnology. It highlights two key issues: (i) current regulations are outdated and insufficient for new biological advancements, and (ii) the unpredictable nature of living entities and rapid technological changes make it difficult to design a regulatory framework that anticipates all risks and contingencies. The core question is whether regulation can ever keep pace with the unpredictable and unique outcomes of biotechnology. Option c correctly touches upon these ideas.
The other options are either too narrow or miss the essence. Option a focuses on calibration and scientists' roles, which is not the central concern of the passage. Similarly, Option b highlights the urgency for new rules but omits the skepticism about achieving comprehensive regulation. Option d overemphasises the impossibility of imagining all risks without addressing the need for flexibility in regulations.
Hence, option c is the best choice.
