I don't get how E is not right - it seems like there is the clear correlation → causation fallacy, but also the fallacy of division. The argument notes the correlation of the "average fat intake of residents" and then makes a conclusion about what individuals should do. What if an individual's fat intake is 0g per day? Then the conclusion is completely preposterous, you can't reduce from 0g.

I understand how E would be wrong, but only if the conclusion was reworded to, "On average, individuals ..." or "Most people ..." because it's speaking to an average individual, not an extreme 0g fat consumer for whom the recommendation is nonsensical. But the way it's written doesn't make that clear, since it's basically saying, "ALL individuals" when there's no way that can apply to people who don't consume any fat (which, is probably very few, so it's a bit unreasonable, but nevertheless frustrating)

the "human-made projectile" could be a 9mm bullet that happened to be there right before the researchers found the skeleton ... doesn't mean we can say anything about Eurasian settlers (ie ac A is correct)

have someone respond, "that can't be true! you increased the budget 6x!!"

and then make the stem "which of the following flaws does the person responding make?"

and then the AC would be, "the % increase doesn't indicate an absolute increase if we dont know the starting amnt"

The support for #15 C, about particular Roman women lived, is in lines 31-32, "we overlook the particular ways in which individual women engaged their worlds". It answers the question of which one psg A author would most likely to agree with

I got lost thinking about, maybe if the virus killed a couple species, and those were food sources for other species, they all could become extinct. And missed the more important part-to-whole flaw which paralleled B. Good to map out exactly what the flaw is before figuring out what it parallels

good tip if your webcam isn't focusing is to put your ID in front of a piece of scratch paper, should help it focus easier, but kind of awkward to hold up
