According to Logical Reasoning section, what is the purpose of the Denial Test?

  1. A. Verify assumptions

  2. B. Confirm sufficiency

  3. C. Test necessity

  4. D. See if an answer choice makes the conclusion fall apart

The correct answer is: D. See if an answer choice makes the conclusion fall apart

The purpose of the Denial Test is to see if an answer choice makes the conclusion fall apart. By negating the answer choice and then evaluating whether the argument still holds up, one can determine if the answer choice is necessary for the conclusion to be valid. This process helps test the strength and validity of the reasoning presented in the argument.
