Critical Reasoning

Mice that have been given morphine are very likely to develop blood poisoning because
bacteria that normally reside in the intestine typically respond to morphine by
migrating into the bloodstream. However, when mice are given both morphine and the
new drug naltrexone, blood poisoning is much less frequent, although it does still
occur. These results provide support for researchers' prediction that naltrexone will
turn out to be toxic to certain types of bacteria.
Which of the following, if discovered to be true, would most seriously weaken the
support for the researchers' prediction?
A. After being administered to mice, naltrexone does not pass from the
bloodstream into the intestine.
B. Naltrexone inhibits morphine from triggering the migration of intestinal bacteria
into the bloodstream.
C. Mice that have been given naltrexone but not morphine have no greater risk of
developing blood poisoning than do mice that have not been given either
substance.
D. The increased risk of blood poisoning is not the only harmful effect on mice of
being given morphine.
E. Conditions other than the presence of intestinal bacteria in the bloodstream can
cause blood poisoning in mice.

Any thoughts guys?

C makes invalid comparison here....so not the correct one

D irrelevant to the conclusion

E other conditions out of scope

A who cares if naltrexone not pass from blood to interstine..

B left out with this one only

However can anyone explain why B is the correct or the wrong option here...

Many thanks!
