Question

animal testing is responsible for many of the life - saving treatments and medications that we take for granted today.
which quote best supports the idea expressed in the sentence?
a. a statement by health officials says that \all labs that engage in animal testing must be licensed and constantly monitored.\
b. \without animal testing, vaccines for deadly diseases like smallpox would never have been discovered,\ says dr. emile scott.
c. according to an official release, \cosmetic companies are the most common offender when it comes to the suffering inflicted on animals.\
d. \i hate to say it, but animal testing is a cruel but necessary evil in order to save the lives of humans,\ says dr. teresa feller.

Explanation:

The original statement emphasizes that animal testing has led to life - saving treatments. Option B directly supports this by giving an example (smallpox vaccine discovery through animal testing). Option A is about licensing labs, which is not related to life - saving. Option C is about cosmetic companies and animal suffering, not life - saving. Option D is more about the necessity of animal testing in a general sense (cruel but necessary) rather than specifically about life - saving treatments.

Answer:

B. "Without animal testing, vaccines for deadly diseases like smallpox would never have been discovered," says Dr. Emile Scott.
