MCQ - 156-8108

Question:

When growing redwoods, a forester must thoroughly douse young sapling each morning until the first sign of new growth appears. Douglas fires, on the other had, are not redwoods. Therefore, a through dousing each morning of young Douglas first sapling is hardly necessary.

The reasoning in the above passage is flawed because

A thorough dousing of water each morning will not adversely affect Douglas fir saplings.
Redwoods and Douglas firs are two different trees and , as such , cannot be compared
Many young Douglas fir saplings have been known to thrive given thorough dousing each morning
Redwoods and Douglas firs are two different trees and , as such , cannot be compared
Redwoods are typically found in old-growth forests whereas Douglas firs rarely are

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

Because two trees are different, one may not therefore conclude that what is important for one tree will not necessarily be important for another. For example, two human beings may be different, yet food, oxygen, and shelter are important for each. The passage incorrectly assumes that a thorough dousing of water is important only for young redwood saplings.
