@grindtime613 Is there a lesson where it says "as_ happens, _ happens" is causal? Because I'm still seeing this as a correlative trap.

C is wrong because it adds a new premise and thats not what the question asks us to do. However, I dont agree that it doesnt help the argument at all. I originally picked C because I thought it was saying the Mosaic being there would help the archeologists of the future tell what materials were used. Am I wrong for thinking that?

Would E be correct if it said group 1 had back pain from car wrecks and Group 2 had back pain from excercise?

@kifill Nevermind. I see the explict "differneces from one reef to another" and differences in isolated reefs do not account for that particular difference

For B how does genetic variation at the individual level not account for genetic variation at the population level. If the individual level is already different then of course the large level would be different too. I feel like that makes sense

For the example, "Cats make good pets." I dont see how that is explicitly the right answer. Neither Tom nor Athena told us what makes a good pet. But I can see how it implies that. So maybe for this to be right the other options would have weaker implications.

Feel like im not seeing the difference between "reading between the lines" and making assumptions. This seems really important for Patterns in the stimulus MSS Questions. Any tips?
