I couldnt get the rationale behind the OA - like to hear your thoughts and rationales supporting your answer.

Since the stem is abt most strongly supported category, the ans has to be from the stimulus.

Let's look at the options:
A - stimulus does not mention anything about poisoning other than arsenic poisoning - OUT OF SCOPE
B - stimulus does not mention abt how Taylor's death happened - OUT
D - No mention in teh stimulus that the sympton grew severe each day - OUT
E - Opposite of what is mentioned in the stimulus. AS per the stimulus, atrsenic posion victim lives for more than a day after ingesting a lethal dose of poison
C - AS per stimulus, Taylor's symptons are consistent with arsenic poisioning but the levels of arsenic that remain in the bones are much lower than in victims with arsenic poisoning - which means that the symptons although consistent with as that of arsenic poisoning were not caused by lethal dose of arseni.

I hope this helps!
