Necessary assumption questions are weird, just really have to think whether or not it’s required. Also, I think it’s not just proportional to surface area the energy it takes to run, two animals equal surface area don’t take the same energy to run if one’s going downhill and one is going up.

One thing to be aware of is that we are concerned with animals running "up" hill, while E is talking about running in general.
I chose E as well. Didn't have enough time and saw the gap between speed and the stim. Went through the choices and chose E confidently.
