Relate to the 2005 AQ on Aggression about how science can increase agricultural productivity. Note the resevations and potential drawbacks of this technology that have led to the modified fish being labelled Frankenfish. Note also how these reservations are rebutted in the article. (a three-layered argument can be structured here)
Sample Qn:
1) How far is it acceptable for technology to be
used only for financial benefit? (Cambridge 2012)
2) To what extent are the rights of animals protected in your society? (Cambridge 2012) [while the research was conducted in Canada, the point is that the experiments still have to be conducted on the salmon before such a technology can be realised. Singapore's ambition to be a biomedical hub means some animals have to be sacrificed. See article 2]
3) Is violence ever justified? (Cambridge 2012) [towards the animals in experiments]
