Some people argue that all experimentation on animals is bad and should be outlawed. However, others believe that important scientific discoveries can be made from animal experiments. Can experimentation on animals be justified? Are there any alternatives?
While it is believed by some people that using animals in all kinds of experiments should not be allowed, others think that many significant scientific explorations have been made possible by means of
such
methods. In fact, experimentation on animals can be justified because sometimes they are the only possible candidates. Linking Words
However
, technological instruments and genetic engineering are now considered to be reliable substitutes.
Despite being against ethical considerations, experimentation on animals can be justified. Linking Words
Moreover
, scientists and doctors use them only because they match certain criteria that make them the perfect fit for testing purposes. Linking Words
For instance
, horses have always been used to test their blood reaction to certain chemicals in order to simulate the process in human blood. Linking Words
Therefore
, there are many good reasons why these tests are being performed on living creatures.
Linking Words
In contrast
, alternatives to Linking Words
such
techniques are available now and they are even more relevant, faster, and much more appropriate. Linking Words
Furthermore
, genetic testing has been performed recently on individual cells in order to avoid the ethical conflict of using a whole body to test a new medication. Linking Words
For example
, in Japan, experiments are being carried out on dead cells in order to discover a permanent cure for cancer. Linking Words
Consequently
, people no longer believe it is necessary to use any living creature to test something as long as there are alternatives to Linking Words
such
a procedure, Linking Words
such
as using dead cells by means of genetic engineering.
In conclusion, While it is argued that all experimentation on animals is bad by some people, others believe that important scientific discoveries can be made from those methods. Indeed, sometimes there is justification for using these approaches when they are the only suitable option. Linking Words
However
, many alternative options have been introduced into the scientific testing techniques and genetic modification and technological equipment are two powerful examples.Linking Words
