Cynthia: Corporations amply fund research that generates marketable new technologies. But the fundamental goal of science is to achieve a comprehensive knowledge of the workings of the universe. The government should help fund those basic scientific research projects that sekk to further our theoretical knowledge of nature.
Luis: The basic goal of government support of scientific research is to generate technological advances that will benefit society as a whole. So only research that is expected to yeild practical applications in fields such as agriculture and medicine ought to be funded.
Which statement would they disagree with each other?
B. A proposed study of the effects of chemical fertilizers on crops, for the purpose of developing more resistant and higher yielding breeds, should not receive government funding.
C. Although some research projects in theoretical science yield practical benefits, most do not, and so no research projects in theoretical science should be funded by the government
E. Knowledge gained through basic scienctific research need not be expected to lead to new and useful technologies in order for the research to merit government funding
B has a practical benefit to the society, so C will agree and L will disagree
C C will disagree and L will agree
E C will agree and L will disagree
All B, C, E seem to be something Cynthia and Luis will disagree on, but E is the right answer. Can someone help?
