Most veterinarians, and especially those at university veterinary research centers, have a devoted interest in the biological sciences. But most veterinarians choose their profession primarily because they love animals. Among persons who are seriously interested in biological science but lack any special love for animals, one does not find any prominent veterinarians.

Summary
The stimulus can be diagrammed as follows:

Notable Valid Inferences
If someone is seriously interested in the biological sciences and does not have a special love for animals, then they are not a prominent veterinarian.
Some people with a devoted interest in biology chose their profession primarily because of love for animals.

A
Some veterinarians have a greater love for biological science than for individual animals.
This could be true. The stimulus does not provide any information that compares how much veterinarians love these two things.
B
Most veterinarians love animals and have an interest in biological science.
This could be true. We do know that some veterinarians love animals and are interested in biology; it could be true that this is the case for most veterinarians.
C
Prominent veterinarians at some veterinary research centers are intensely devoted to the biological sciences but do not feel any pronounced affection for animals.
This must be false. We know that if someone doesn’t love animals and is intensely interested in biology, then they are not a prominent veterinarian.
D
Few veterinarians at university research centers chose their profession primarily because they love animals.
This could be true. We know that most veterinarians as a whole chose their profession primarily because they love animals, but we don’t know the quantity of veterinarians at university research centers who did so.
E
Most veterinarians who are not prominent regard an understanding of the biological sciences as the most important quality for success in their profession.
This could be true. The stimulus does not talk about what anyone considers the most important quality for success in their profession.
