The central idea of section #1 seems to be that scientists are able to engineer extinct animals back into existence. This is indicated by the repeated sentence "Scientists are able to engineer extinct animals back into existence," which suggests that the section is discussing the capabilities of scientists in the field of de-extinction or genetic engineering.
Regarding question 3, without the actual text from section #1, I cannot accurately determine the author's bias. You should look for specific words or phrases at the end of section #1 that indicate whether the author is enthusiastic or skeptical about bringing back extinct species, or if the author portrays the concept positively or negatively. The author's bias will be shown through emotional language, persuasive techniques, or subjective statements. Please provide the specific word choices or sentences from the end of section #1 for a more precise answer on the author's bias.
