- Purpose of physical sciences is to predict the order of events
- Human behavior can sometimes be predicted
- However, successful predictions of human behavior do not provide understanding of it.
a) This is part of the premise.
b) The argument expresses exactly the opposite.
c) Correct. The use of 'however' after the human behavior premise, indicates that in the physical sciences, ability to predict events does provide an understanding of it.
d) This is part of the premise.
e) This is never indicated or mentioned.

Little confused here... Option C says that in some cases, the understanding of the event comes through the ability to predict the occurrence of the event.
But how do you relate this to the stimulus which talks about the human behavior?? Can you explain as I am not able to correlate the reasoning behind bringing in the Physical sciences based on the human behavior info ??
