[Reasoning Test] Do you know the answer?

Scenario:

「Researchers have successfully mapped the genetic code of the mouse and have generously elected to make their findings available to scientists everywhere. A genetic model of the mouse is of benefit to researchers because it is believed that one hundred million years ago, both mice and humans shared a common rodent-like ancestor. This makes mice ideal substitutes for humans in genetic studies. Therefore, the mouse is one of the most useful animals for studying cancer and other diseases.」

Statements:

  1. The research findings show that humans and mice once had a common ancestor.

  2. It is likely that these findings, due to a similar shared genetic code, will result in research that will lead to the eradication of cancer.

Is the statements 1 / 2 .....

True? i.e. The statement is already made or implied in the passage, or follows logically from the passage.

False? i.e. The statement contradicts what is said, implied by, or follows logically from the passage.

Can't tell? i.e. There is insufficient information in the passage to establish whether the statement is true or false.
