The Burmese ferret badger burrows its home in the ground. Based on the fact that different local populations of Burmese ferret badgers of the same species dig homes of different styles, zoologists have concluded that the badgers building styles are a culturally acquired, rather than a genetically transmitted, trait.

Q:Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the conclusion drawn by the zoologists?

Choose an answer

There are more common characteristics than there are differences among the Burmese ferret badger's styles of the local Burmese ferret badger population that has been studied most extensively

Young Burmese ferret badgers are inept at digging burrows and apparently spend years watching their eldersbefore becoming accomplished in the local style

The homes of one species of badger lack the characteristics of the homes of most other species of badger

Burmese ferret badgers are found only in Burma and India, where local populations of the badgers apparently seldom have contact with one another

A poster in an eye clinic advises people, who have received eye drops X that blur vision, refrain from driving until they can do so safely. In a Gov't initiated hospital study, however, subjects questioned immediately after they received such drops and underestimated the time necessary to regain their driving ability. This result indicates that many people with eye drops X will be unlikely to follow the advice.

Q:Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument above?

Choose an answer

Many people, if they know they will receive eye drops X, make arrangements beforehand for a friend or relative to drive them home

The subjects in the hospital study generally rated their abilities more conservatively than they would if they were outside the framework of a scientific experiment

Some people ask their doctors not to give them eye drops X that blur vision if they will have to drive to get home afterward

The subjects in the study were also questioned about the time necessary to regain abilities that do not play an important role in driving safely
