prompt:
which of the following can be properly inferred from the technician’s statements?

A. the conditions under which laboratory mice are kept are not likely to change in the future

B. If laboratory mice were kept under better conditions would be more appropriate to use them for research aimed at improving human health.

C. Research using laboratory mice that are aimed at improving human health is compromised by the conditions this lines up the closest

D. Those who conduct research aimed at improving human health will develop new research techniques.

E. Laboratory mice that are used for research that is not directly related to human health are not usually kept in small cages.

Answer 3

C. Research using laboratory mice that are aimed at improving human health is compromised by the conditions this lines up the closest
