Some potential anticancer drugs work by depriving growing tumors of needed blood vessels. The creation of blood vessels is called angiogenesis, and the experimental drugs work by inhibiting this process. The same drugs have been found to prevent obesity in rodents.
The statements above, if true, lend the strongest support to which one of the following?
(A) The cells in tumors are more similar in structure to fat cells than to other cells in the body.
(B) Drugs that inhibit angiogenesis would probably enable obese humans to lose weight.
(C) Fat tissue depends on angiogenesis in order to grow.
(D) Rodents with cancer are more likely to be obese than healthy rodents.
(E) Drugs that inhibit angiogenesis also prevent absorption of vital nutrients.

(A) The cells in tumors are more similar in structure to fat cells than to other cells in the body.
Drugs work by inhibiting the angiogenesis, which is the process of creating new blood vessels. Similarity in cells is not in scope. Eliminate.
(B) Drugs that inhibit angiogenesis would probably enable obese humans to lose weight.
No support for experiments that are successful on rodent will also be successful on humans. Eliminate.
(C) Fat tissue depends on angiogenesis in order to grow.
Drug showed prevention of obesity in rodents. This is broad but in-line with the passage. Keep
(D) Rodents with cancer are more likely to be obese than healthy rodents.
Nothing about rodents with cancer in passage. Eliminate.
(E) Drugs that inhibit angiogenesis also prevent absorption of vital nutrients.
Nothing in passage about absorption of vital nutrients. Eliminate.
Ans - C.
