Can anyone make an argumentive statement for the beginning for me to start off? its about cloning cow to produce higher quality products I just don't know where to start


Imagine the perfect dairy cow. She became pregnant on her first attempt, gave birth easily, and produced the best milk from gallon to gallon. The cow remained healthy even when others in the herd fell ill. In hard times, the farmer relied on this cow and her daughters to run the farm, but now it is at the end of its reproductive life and the farmer won't turn her into steak.
At this point the cows' health will start to decline, making it hard for the cow to keep its same pace of producing milk, while the daughters of the cow might be able to supply the same, the more effective way is to copy (clone) the cow. This process takes up to three years. After the process, it will make an identical twin of the cow that will be exactly the same as the cow prior.
Farmers can also clone animals to produce high-quality meat. A male pig that matures quickly and produces lean meat in the span of a few years, will be very productful for the farmer. If a farmer has more than one such pig, he can quickly produce a whole herd with high-quality meat which will give the farmer profit.
Cloning is chiefly to produce a better breeding stock that can supply the farmer with a good herd. Cloning can be efficient to block disease which could overall give the cow a better life according to FDA, “Sick animals are expensive for farmers. Veterinary bills add up, and unhealthy animals don’t produce as much meat or milk. A herd that is resistant to disease is extremely valuable because it doesn’t lose any production time to illness, and doesn’t cost the farmer extra money for veterinary treatment.”
Cows are very expensive animals that provide a lot to humans, but they do have pretty rough lives whether it's disease, bad joints, or bad reproductive systems; there are a lot of ways to avoid this with cloning healthy cows by producing naturally healthy cows. Most people agree with cloning cows, would you? It is a genetically super cow that is resistant and gives the cow a better life and helps farmers out with constancy.

Thanks :D

Read the excerpt from the play The King of Sharks:

Scene 3

Young man with a birthmark in the shape of shark teeth on his back is hiding behind some trees, listening to fishermen talk.

Narrator: The shark prince grew up. He became a strong young man who looked just like the other young men of the village, except for the strange birthmark on his back.

Fisherman 1: I hear there is good fishing out at the cove. I will head there tomorrow morning at first light.

Fisherman 2: I will join you! Be sure you don't mention where you are going to anyone else. It will mean more fish for us!

Fisherman 1: I won't tell a soul. You must have said something last time. There were hardly any fish left.

Narrator: The prince often listened to where the village fishermen planned to go, and he would always get there first to eat his fill of the delicious fish. With his father's cloak around his shoulders, the prince could transform into a shark whenever he chose. The fishermen were becoming suspicious.

Exit fishermen. Prince creeps down to the water's edge and wraps the cloak around his shoulders before jumping into the sea. A shark fin can be seen heading out into the water. Enter fishermen.

Fisherman 1: I knew it! That trickster boy has been stealing our fish.

Fisherman 2: It's not right, using magic to rob honest people of food and a living.

Fisherman 1: He must go.

Read the excerpt from the story Hummingbird and Heron:

The two birds began to argue over who had eaten more fish. Finally, Hummingbird raised his wing to stop the debate.

"I do not think there are enough fish left in the river for both of us," he said. "Let's have a race. Whoever reaches the dead tree on the other side of the hills first owns all the fish. The loser has to find something else to eat."

Heron agreed. They prepared to race. Hummingbird was certain that he would win. He watched Heron as she awkwardly stretched her wings and prepared to fly. This will be like catching fish in a barrel, he thought with a grin.

Hummingbird zoomed past Heron as soon as the race began. He flew so far ahead that he lost sight of her behind him. He slowed down as he passed a patch of wildflowers. They smelled so sweet that he had to stop and look at them more closely. Hummingbird just had to try some of their nectar. He drank until his belly was heavy and his eyelids drooped. Perhaps just a short nap, he thought, as he settled himself into a nest of soft leaves.

It was late in the day when Hummingbird woke up. He stretched his wings and glanced at the sky. He could just make out the shape of Heron, flying slowly but surely toward the dead tree. She was almost done with the race! Hummingbird zipped into the air and flew as fast as he could, but it was too late. Heron reached the tree first. From that day forward, Heron owned the fish, and Hummingbird lived on nectar.

In both mythical texts, greedy characters choose to try to trick or manipulate other characters. What is different about the experiences of the shark prince and Hummingbird?

Group of answer choices

Only the shark prince's tricking of the fishermen is successful because he keeps eating the fish.

Only Hummingbird's manipulation of Heron is unsuccessful because he drinks nectar and naps.

Only Hummingbird's manipulation of Heron is discovered as he drinks nectar and naps.

Read How Ice Cream Is Made:

Ice cream is a frozen blend of sweetened cream and air with added flavoring. This is how it is made commercially.

Necessary Ingredients:

Dairy products, including milk, cream, and butter fat

Sugar

Eggs

Flavoring

Approved additives to prevent ice crystals during the production process

Production Steps:

Step 1: To start, the ingredients are carefully measured and then combined together. The dairy ingredients, solids, and additives are blended well to ensure the liquid and dry components are completely mixed.

Step 2: Next, the mix is pasteurized. This means it is heated to high temperatures to remove any bacteria which could be found in the raw ingredients. Pasteurization can occur at 155°F for 30 minutes or 175°F for 25 seconds. The temperatures used to pasteurize ice cream need to be higher than those used for milk because the mixture includes high-fat dairy sources, sweeteners, and egg yolks.

Step 3: Following pasteurization, the ice cream mix is homogenized. This occurs when the fat globules in the cream are broken down into smaller parts through vigorous mixing. Once homogenized, the ice cream should be very smooth and uniform, meaning free of bubbles. Now the ice cream will be easier to whip and will not melt as fast.

Step 4: The next step is to let the ice cream mixture stand for at least four hours. During this time, the fat cools and forms crystals.

Step 5: A special barrel freezer is then used to gradually freeze the ice cream. The machine also pumps clean air into the mix. This keeps the ice cream soft and allows it to absorb the different flavorings. Without the air, the mixture would become as hard as an ice cube.

Step 6: During freezing, flavoring can be added. Ice cream flavors have moved on from plain vanilla and chocolate to include hundreds of combinations using fruit, nuts, candy, cookies, and other baked goods.

Step 7: Finally, the ice cream is packaged and put into a blast freezer where the temperature is between -22 to -40 Fahrenheit.

Based on the information in the text, what is one reason why Step 1 is important?

The liquid ingredients are blended together to prepare for the next step of freezing.
The dairy ingredients go through the pasteurization process to kill any possible bacteria.
Additives are added to keep ice crystals from forming during the production process.
The dry ingredients are carefully measured and mixed together, so that in Step 2, the liquid ingredients can be added.
