Question

through careful examination of dna samples taken from permafrost on wrangel island, geneticists at the sorensen institute confirmed that a small population of mammoths survived until approximately 2100 bce—far longer than previously believed—shedding new light on the species’ extinction timeline. ____ the study also raised ethical questions about potentially reviving the species through genetic engineering techniques. 7 mark for review which choice completes the text with the most logical transition? a granted, b in other words, c that is, d furthermore,

Explanation:

To determine the logical transition, analyze the relationship between the two sentences. The first sentence describes a discovery about mammoths' survival, and the second introduces an additional aspect (ethical questions) of the study. "Furthermore" is used to add related information, which fits here. "Granted" implies concession (not applicable), "In other words" and "That is" are for rephrasing (not adding new info).

Answer:

D. Furthermore,
