In a research on cancer patients, a group of lung cancer patients were undergoing a recuperative program that requires daily physical exercises. At the end of the program, the size of the tumor in each of these patients decreased dramatically. Similar recuperative program should be imposed on other cancer patients.
Each of the following is an assumption made in the argument above EXCEPT:
A. In most cancer patients, cancer is caused almost entirely by lack of physical exercises.
B. The recuperative program that requires daily physical exercises has a significant impact on the cancer recuperation.
C. Other cancer patients have disease mechanisms basically similar to those of lung cancer patients.
D. A decrease in the tumor size is desirable for cancer treatment.
E. A decrease in the tumor size in a lung cancer patient reflects improved condition of the patient.
Thanks for the above question. I can recognize the pattern now.
