Must be TrueDiff: Hard

Logic Breakdown

Passage Summary: Genetic research is paid for by either the government or big companies, and almost every time they make a discovery, it creates a moral problem.

Reasoning: Almost all genetic research leads to ethical dilemmas, and all such research is funded by either the government or corporations.

Analysis: In 'Must Be True' questions, we treat the premises as absolute laws. We know that 100% of genetic research is funded by either the government or corporations, and we know that 'almost all' research leads to ethical dilemmas. Therefore, it must be true that at least some research funded by the government (or corporations) leads to ethical dilemmas. Look for an answer that combines these categories without overstepping the 'almost all' quantifier.

Correct Answer
D
D must be true. Ethical dilemmas that result from advances in genetic research presuppose that such advances occurred within genetic research, and any genetic research requires either government or corporate funding. So none of those dilemmas arise without one of those funding sources.
