Question

which is an example of how society affects science?
laws have been passed banning the production of a living copy of a person.
prices of prescription drugs have increased dramatically over time.
a girl has decided to bake a cake for her sister’s birthday.
some people enjoy watching stars and planets in the night sky

Explanation:

This question asks for an example of society influencing science. Laws banning human cloning are a societal decision that restricts and shapes scientific research and practice in the field of biotechnology. The other options do not show society affecting scientific work: prescription drug prices are an economic factor, baking a cake is a personal activity, and stargazing is a leisure interest unrelated to societal impact on science.

Answer:

A. Laws have been passed banning the production of a living copy of a person.
