QUESTION TEXT: Technician: Laboratory mice that are used for…
QUESTION TYPE: Must Be True
FACTS: Mice are kept in small cages. That’s not healthy or normal. Mice aren’t as useful for research if we keep them in a non-normal environment.

Keeping mice in small cages makes them less useful for research.
Normally on a test I’d draw that with letters, not words, but the words make it clearer for a book.
___________
- We’re not told whether there will be any changes.

- We’re not told anything about how scientists develop new techniques.
- We aren’t told anything about other mice.
