Explanation for Question 26 From the Reading Section on the Official Sat Practice Test 4
Question 26 says which choice provides the best evidence for the answer to the 2 previous question. So it's paired with question 25 and the correct answer that was 3 determined for 25 is the question is what does the author suggest about the 4 transgenic studies done in the 1980s and 1990s? 5 An answer choice B that they were not expected to yield products ready for? 6 Human use was determined to be the correct answer. 7 So let's look at the lines of evidence given to us in question 26, 8 and we can see which one best supports the fact that these transgenic studies 9 were not expected to yield products ready for human use. 10 So if you look at answer choice a line 16 through 19, 11 it says the trouble is that it's difficult and expensive to make these compounds 12 on an industrial scale. And as a result, 13 patients can face shortages of medicines they need. 14 So this is not talking about the transgenic studies of the 1980s 15 and 1990s at all. This is talking about enzymes 16 and hormones and stuff, being produced to treat cancer, 17 diabetes, and autoimmune diseases. So since this isn't talking about the transgenic studies, 18 this is just going to be automatically incorrect. 19 And then if we look at answer choice B, it says if they put 20 the gene and just the right place under the control of the right molecular 21 switch, maybe they could engineer animals that produced healing, 22 human proteins in their milk. So this is kind of like the guiding question 23 behind the 1...
