Archaeologists should make greater use of satellite images in their search for Mayan ruins in the jungles of Guatemala. Though satellite photographs have proven unhelpful because of their inability to penetrate the dense tree canopy, infrared imaging translates heat signatures into distinct colors, making previously-undiscovered ruins visible.
The conclusion above is based on which of the following assumptions?
A. Archeologists in the field have not been able to discover many ruins because the jungle is impenetrable.
B. Archaeologists use both satellite technology and local folklore to theorize the location of ruins.
C. Archaeologists require special training in order to read maps produced by infrared imaging.
D. Satellite photography has not produced images of sufficient detail to locate ruins in the jungle.
E.Infrared imaging is helpful because the heat signature of ruin sites is different from the heat signature of the surrounding jungle.
