Example of the use of key verbs # 2

analyse and present information from secondary sources to report on progress in the production of artificial blood and use available evidence to propose reasons why such research is needed

THIS OUTCOME HAS TWO VERBS, ANALYSE and propose.

Reference 1 is dated 2011http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/science-news/8850684/Artificial-blood-could-be-used-within-next-decade.html)
.
Reference 2 http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/Issues/2010/…/ArtificialBlood.asp is dated 2010

Reference 3 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/7567469/Blood-vessels-grown-from-stem-cells-could-revolutionise-heart-surgery.html is dated 2010.

Each reference has the following in common

1. While it would be an imperfect substitute for real blood and therefore not be used in all operations, artificial blood could revolutionise treatment in ambulances, war zones, disaster areas, experts said.
