What do the key words "Studies suggest" typically signal in an argument?

Premise
Conclusion
Assumption
Contradiction

The correct answer is: Conclusion

Key words like "Studies suggest" usually signal the conclusion of an argument. In this case, the phrase indicates that the statement following it is the main point or the conclusion that the author is trying to support with evidence from studies. The premise provides the support or evidence for the conclusion, while the assumption is an unstated premise that the argument relies on. Contradiction would imply that the argument directly goes against a previous statement or belief, which is not necessarily the case here.
