Which one of the following statements best reflects the thinking of the author about the science?

The author notes that earlier scientists like Newton and Galileo only acknowledged the responsibility to tell the truth, but now we take it for granted that science has a social responsibility. The passage thus links the traditional truth-seeking role of science with a modern obligation toward social welfare. Option (a) about commitment of scientists is too narrow. Option (b) about scientific awareness is not the passage's focus. Option (c) reverses the causal direction — the passage says the idea of science as social enterprise begins at the industrial revolution, not that industrial revolution was caused by science. Hence (d) best captures the author's thinking.
