How can it be D when the word eradicated is used. If the air pollution eradicated the diseases, or destroyed them completely, then D does not make sense
#feedback In the "lets review" section, it would be helpful to be able to hover over wrong answers being discussed (ex: (A), (B), (C)) and see what the answer choice is referring to.
e·rad·i·cate = destroy completely; put an end to. If the word "mitigate" was used then I could understand answer choice D being correct. #7Sage Help Me Please
So far we’ve learned that Strengthen/Weaken questions can involve coming up with/eliminating an alternative hypothesis, coming up with factors that would make an experiment “ideal”, and causal mechanisms. Does anyone which of these seem to be the most common type of answer choice on Strengthen/Weaken questions? Like, for instance, do most correct ACs on these questions involve an alternative hypothesis or are the correct ACs for these questions pretty evenly distributed between coming up with Alternative hypotheses, ideal experiments, and causal mechanisms?
I have seen this addressed by people in previous posts, but these explanations are needlessly long/complex. Seeing what couldve made wrong answers right is extremely obtuse and unecessary. While detail is great in some scenarios, we are going to get an average of 1 and a half minutes per question and lessons on how to go through this process in a time efficient manner and how to actually apply this to to the actual test would be greatly appreciated. We are not going to have 10 minutes per question to go through complex logical equations.

got it correct!
I thought of the contrapositive of the cause (Ik that is for conditions) and when I saw the answer choice, I jumped to conclusions
yippee got it right even though it was a level one question!! 😍
yassss (1 star)

How can i increase my speed in these questions. I get the answers right but exceed the time
JY blessed us with a break by throwing a 1-star question at us
remember: a level one question is worth as many points as a level five question. every correct answer is a win 🥶
Let's go guys, we all feasting on this question!!
gets it right - then looks at analytics tab Ah shit.
living for the getting it on the one level difficulty
Got excited again. One star. Guys. I gotta stop getting excited.
I feel silly :/ I chose D initially and then chose E during blind review :/
#feedback i took eradicate to mean go extinct, so I chose B. Why can't it take eradicate to mean go extinct?
Sometimes when I get the answer correct, I zone out when the wrong answers are being discussed in the video. #badhabits

#feedback I feel like the passage difficulty on this one should also be a 1.
#feedback I've been getting the last few questions right, but im not hitting the target time. we need tips or strategy to increase our speed
love it when he does the "Oooooookaaayyy??"

Doesn't B provide reasons to believe an alternative hypothesis (that something else eliminated the diseases) is false
#help #feedback
The dopamine hit I get when I hit submit and see the answer is circled green (visibly shakes)

Hopefully this makes sense, thanks!
But Eradicate = gone for good !!
