I have a question about Q13.
Doesn't answer (E) "The behavior of modern-day humans can provide legitimate evidence concerning the evolutionary origins of human abilities" have the same scope problem as (A) "All human capacities can be exp0lained in terms of the evolutionarey advantages they offer"

Doesn't both passage use principle A as well?

Thanks again.

Quick question... Do you mean answer choice (B) and (E)? The quoted answer choice you had for (A) is actually answer choice (B).

Question about #10

I know Passage A mentions music in relation to neuroscience (line 6) but Passage B does as well (line 60). So why isn't the correct answer choice (C)? Thanks!

Regarding question 10. I had the same question for the same reason as Goriano.

But then I realized that the second passage is not talking about neurological research. It is actually talking about behavior research!! :o

I have a question regarding question 14. I chose (E) as my answer because I understand that they both use different evidence to come to a conclusion, but I thought that they initially agreed to the same conclusion, which would be the cause of evolution. I did not pick (A) initially because I did not think they had "divergent conclusions.

If someone would be able to explain this to me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Guys,
