I viewed C as wrong because from the stimulus we don't know the origins of the nucleomorphs. AC C tries to say that nucleomorphs can only be created by the process of endosymbiosis. Where do we see this in the stimulus? no where !

At least this is what my thought process was.

I got A right not because gamma interferon stops white blood cells from producing but because it says " stops white blood cells from producing myelin destroying compounds". Well in the stimulus it says white blood cells destroy the myelin sheath not that it produces a compound and the compound does that destroys. Wondering if anyone else say this or if Im wrong but got it right anyways from process of elimination

Originally chose AC A and did not change it to C during BR even though it was a toss up for me. From my point of view this passage is mainly talking about scientist rather the ET life. So when we look at A it is talking about ET life but if we look at C it is talking about scientists. Question also tricked me cause I have been avoiding conclusions at the end each passage as we were told too. Now I know that rule is not absolute.

Immediately took out A and C without reading them because the word “if” shows a conditional. Stimulus says nothing about that.

For anyone that needs extra help understanding this problem this is what I did. My diagram was a little different. CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG IN MY THINKING

Stimulus tells us:

If you are a material body ( MB) then you are divisible (D). And if you are divisible(D) then you are imperfect(IMP). Spirit (S)is not a material body(MB).

MB→D→IMP ( the setup) as soon as you read spirit is not a material body it should all click.

----------------------------------------------

S→/MD→/D→/IMP

AC explanations

A. Everything divisible is a material body. ( In my mind I knew this was wrong because it was going against the arrows in the diagram aka they flipped the direction)

B. Nothing imperfect is divisible. (Same as AC A wrong this is saying if you are perfect you are divisible but this would also be going against the arrows )

C. The spirit is divisible ( wrong because spirit is not a material body and only a material body can be divisible)

D. Correct because when you put S in front of /MB you can infer S→/IMP which means it is perfect.

E. The spirit is either indivisible or imperfect ( just wrong can be one or the other has to match. either divisible and imperfect or indivisible and perfect.)
