I thought that this question is asking for an assumption that is sufficient.
I read in some books that when the question states
which of the following is an assumption on which the conclusion depends? - this means that the task is to find a necessary assumption
and when the question read on "The conclusion follows logically if which of the following assumptions is true?" - the task if to find an assumption that is sufficient
Based on this, this question is asking for a sufficient assumption
This argument is assuming that "Observation is the only method for determining truth"
Observation -> truth
which is more in line with choice C
How do you know it is asking for something necessary?
