What type of conclusions are Prescriptive Conclusions?

"Offer an alternative explanation?"
"Something definitely is or is not the case."
"In a Recommendation, the author proposes a course of action."
"Prescriptive Conclusions state what 'should' or 'ought' to be the case."

The correct answer is: "Prescriptive Conclusions state what 'should' or 'ought' to be the case."

Prescriptive conclusions are statements that suggest what "should" or "ought" to be the case. While option A refers to alternative explanations, option B relates to statements that are definitive in nature, and option C pertains to recommendations, only option D accurately describes the nature of prescriptive conclusions. These conclusions usually involve a value judgment or an assertion about what is morally or ethically right.
