No factors other than diet and heredity influence susceptibility to Blog’s disease, and diet has been shown to have a greater influence than heredity.

We can infer that...

A) Diet accounts for some or all susceptibility to Blog’s disease.

B) Heredity has some influence on susceptibility to Blog’s disease.

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

Please break this down. I thought if diet is a greater influence than heredity, than heredity must have some influence. Therefore, B should be correct.

However, A is correct; and, I can understand A being correct. Why can B not be correct?

Thanks.
