On which one of the following assumptions does the argument rely?

  1. Assumption

  2. Resolve

  3. Conclusion

  4. Critique

The correct answer is: Assumption

The argument in a LSAT question relies on certain assumptions to connect the evidence provided to the conclusion drawn. In this case, the correct answer is A because assumptions serve as the unstated premises that support the conclusion. Without these assumptions, the argument may not hold and the conclusion may not be valid. Assumptions are essential in reinforcing the logic of the argument and making it more persuasive to the reader. Choices B, C, and D are not correct as they are not related to the role of assumptions in supporting the argument's structure.
