It’s true that we can use computers to replace animals in some research; however, when the biological experts don’t understand how all the things work in human bodies, how can a computer created by mankind have the ability to handle the complex experiments? For instance, Dennis Noble, a professor from Oxford University, uses computers to design a virtual heart which may take almost 30 hours to just finish several beats of heart because billions of divergent mathematical problems are being done at the same time while the computer has a limitation. Thus, computers are not enough for research. In reality, a lot of basic cell processes are similar in different kinds of animals. For instance, animals share the main functions such as reproduction, sight, hearing, and breathing. It’s impossible to calculate and collect vital data from all of these things by using only a computer. Besides, before people can program a computer model to do medical research, an understanding of physiology is needed first. Therefore, we have to use animals in the scientific research to obtain a better understanding of the way living things work, and then apply that …show more content…
Even though the data we get from animal testing is not always reliable, animal testing is still beneficial to both humans and animals. The most important thing is that humans don 't have other choices if they don 't use animals. For those people who are against animal experiments actually are destroying the future care because understanding of one type of animal can also benefit all kinds of animals and humans. Now many pets, livestock, and animals in zoos have longer life period and become healthier as a result of animal research. Therefore, the use of animals in experiments is necessary and
