One challenge in designing self-driving cars is avoiding common traffic problems like crashes and congestion. Fish traveling together in schools face similar problems. However, the methods fish use to navigate reduce the frequency of these problems compared with cars on the road.

Hence, the methods fish use to navigate could help engineers design a self-driving robotic car that avoids common traffic problems.

This answer is unsupported. Just because we can draw some comparisons between traffic and fish, that doesn't make it necessary to be a fish expert for constructing self-driving robotic cars.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know from the stimulus what methods the best drivers use. The stimulus addresses common traffic problems generally.

This answer is unsupported. To say that this is "always" advisable is too strong. We know from the stimulus that this may be one instance, but we don’t know if there are other circumstances where the natural world would guide engineers addressing challenges.

This answer is strongly supported. The stimulus employs reasoning by analogy. If schools of fish avoid problems by navigating using certain methods, then these methods could possibly be useful to engineers when designing self-driving robotic cars.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know whether fish methodology is for sure a better way to avoid problems on the road, all we can infer from the stimulus is that it may be helpful to consider.
