With the evolution of technologies

by 786 » Thu Nov 24, 2011 7:58 am
With the evolution of technologies such as cloning, scientific community leaders mandate that researchers consider the ethical questions associated with their field of development, as it is a part of their professional responsibility.

(1)consider the ethical questions associated with their field of development, as it
(2)considering the ethical questions associated with their field of development, doing so
(3)have considered the ethical questions associated with their field of development, as to do so
(4)consider the ethical questions associated with the field of development, as doing so
(5)consider the ethical questions associated with their field of development, as to do so

IMO D

because

A) "their" and "it" are illogical, as "their" can refer to any one of "leaders", "researchers" or "questions", and "it" has not clear antecedent;

B) "considering" is problem here! it creates sentence fragment;

C) "have considered" is incorrect verb form as "mandate" requires subjunctive;

E) as in A, B, C, in E "their" is a problematic use. As a subject of a sentence, infinitive can be used only to maintain a parallelism: to sit on the GMAT exam without preparation is to go shopping without money.

D) one can use a gerund as a subject of a sentence cause a gerund can be a noun!

The debate is between D and E , and the answer is between D and E .
Aspirant 2011 ,

What is wrong with doing so in D ?

I don't think so that in E "as" logically comes with "consider"

Confused with the pronoun reference of "Their" and therefore confused with D ane E. I would mark D and move ahead.

@786, Please provide the OA...

Experts, Please provide your opinion....
