To acquire a better understanding of the structure and development of the human personality, some psychologists study the personalities of animals.
Each of the following, if true, contributes to an explanation of the practice mentioned above EXCEPT:
(A) The actions of humans and animals are believed to be motivated by similar instincts, but these instincts are easier to discern in animals.
(B) The law forbids certain experiments on humans but permits them on animals.
(C) It is generally less expensive to perform experiments on animals than it is to perform them on humans.
(D) Proper understanding of human personality is thought to provide a model for better understanding the personality of animals.
(E) Field observations of the behavior of young animals often inspire insightful hypotheses about human personality development.

(C) It is generally less expensive to perform experiments on animals than it is to perform them on humans.
somewhat clarifies the practice, though cost is not mentioned in the passage, it can very well be a reason to understand personalities of animals, humans are just more costly to study
(D) Proper understanding of human personality is thought to provide a model for better understanding the personality of animals.
This goes the other way. understanding of human personality sets the tone to understand the animal personality but psychologists are doing it other way round
(E) Field observations of the behavior of young animals often inspire insightful hypotheses about human personality development.
