Leela,

As you point out, this parallel the flaw question does not appear in its full glory in other places, as it is unique. However, note that nothing about its individual parts is unique, which makes the question something you can reckon with.

1. An error of composition/division (treats organic and non-organic as identical because they are both vegetables).
2. An gap assumption (leaps from cancer to health in general).

I think the big focus is the second part, which makes (A) clear. In any case, by studying common flaws (lesson 7) and assumption questions, you are preparing for questions like this one.

Thanks, Brook!

Just to clarify that I'm applying this correctly, could you check my logic below for A?

1. An error of composition/division (treats organic and non-organic as identical because they are both vegetables).

A) treats nuclear and non-nuclear as identical because they are both power plants

2. A gap assumption (leaps from cancer to health in general).

A) leaps from major illnesses to health in general

Additionally, should I care at all about the jump from "produce" to "fruits and vegetables" in the stimulus? If so, could this be seen as paralleled as "modern power plant" to "power plant" in answer choice A?

That's a good analysis, leela! I wouldn't worry about the change from "fruits and vegetables" to "produce", because produce IS fruits and vegetables, at least in common parlance. Think about the produce department at your local grocery store - that's where the fresh fruits and veggies are found.

The change in answer A from "modern power plant" to "power plant" is not a change at all, because the author refers to "the power plant", which is a direct reference to the modern power plants looked at in the study.
