Monarch butterflies migrate much farther than do other insects of similar size. The reason for this behavior is that the range of atmospheric conditions in which monarch butterflies can survive is especially narrow, forcing the butterflies to travel more frequently and extensively to find a suitable habitat.
Which of the following, if true, most helps to confirm the explanation above?
A. Some monarch butterflies migrate over an area 10 times larger than the area over which any other insect of similar size migrates.
B. The monarch butterfly is more resilient to changes in atmospheric conditions than members of most other insect species.
C. During their breeding season, monarch butterflies must find a habitat suitable for both themselves and their newly hatched young.
D. Sometimes individual monarch butterflies spend their entire lives near a single location and never migrate.
E. Monarch butterflies migrate larger distances in years when atmospheric conditions stray further from the range healthy for them than they do in years when atmospheric conditions remain favorable to them.

Premise:
Monarch butterflies have a very narrow range of atmospheric conditions they can survive in.
Conclusion:
Because of this narrow tolerance, they migrate farther and more often than similar insects to find suitable habitats.
Prethinking:
If this explanation is correct, then migration should increase when atmospheric conditions move further away from what is suitable. Worse conditions should force longer migration.
We need a choice that strengthens this cause-effect link.
Option analysis:
A. Just compares migration distances with other insects; no causal support → eliminate
B. Says they are more resilient; contradicts the idea of narrow tolerance → eliminate
C. Talks about breeding requirements; irrelevant to atmospheric conditions → eliminate
D. Mentions some do not migrate; exception, does not support explanation → eliminate
E. Shows that migration distance increases when atmospheric conditions are less favorable; directly supports the explanation
Final Answer: E

monarch butterflies migrate much father than do other insects of similar size.
reason- atmospheric conditions for survival is narrow and that forces them to travel more frequently and extensively to find suitable habitat.
A. Some monarch butterflies migrate over an area 10 times larger than the area over which any other insect of similar size migrates.
this only compares some monarch butterflies ability to travel over certain large area compared to other same size of insects. but we dont know anything about condition for their survival. so reject.
B. The monarch butterfly is more resilient to changes in atmospheric conditions than members of most other insect species.
this actually goes in other side though. if they are more resilient then they should find a way to get through particular atmospheric conditions. but as per passage they are not. so reject.
C. During their breeding season, monarch butterflies must find a habitat suitable for both themselves and their newly hatched young.
this is irrelevant here, reject.
D. Sometimes individual monarch butterflies spend their entire lives near a single location and never migrate.
out of discussion here.
E. Monarch butterflies migrate larger distances in years when atmospheric conditions stray further from the range healthy for them than they do in years when atmospheric conditions remain favorable to them.
this reinforces the stated claim in the passage. if they are travelling farther when condition is not favorable to them but dont travel much when conditions remains favorable to them, then it gives the reason to believe in stated claim in passage and rules out any other possibilities for their longer travel.
