C is the answer .
Hart's argument doenst refute Chois claim at all.Chois doesnt say that there are more doctorate holders whose parents are doctorate holders than the ones whose parents are not. He says there is more likly to get a doctorate degree to one whose parents are doctorate holders.
so both claims are consistent.
