Automobile industry representative: New innovations in automobiles will not happen unless the heavy development costs we incur can be recouped in later sales. Therefore, the current 20 years of protection provided by patents for all industries should be extended in the case of newly developed automobile innovations. Critic: In most other industries, new product development has happened despite high development costs. So, such an extension is unnecessary.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the automobile industry's argument against the challenge made above?
A. The heavy electrical industry, which has development costs comparable to those in the automobile industry, has not seen new innovations in recent years.
B. Automobile companies are legally permitted to bring to market alternative innovations that are sufficiently dissimilar to the patented innovation.
C. Many recent industrial innovations have happened in products, for example, in the computer and electronics industries, for which patent protection is often very ineffective.
D. Beta testing of the automobile innovation, which occur after the patent is granted and before the new innovation can be marketed, often takes as many as 10 years to complete.
E. There are several industries with much innovation in which the ratio of research and development costs to revenues is higher than it is in the automobile industry.

Here we need to strengthen the conclusion which is : Patent ownership time of newly developed automobile innovations is more than 20 years
A- out of context
B- means alternation is there leads weaken the argument
C- Again weaken the conclusion
D-Beta Testing of the automobile techniques is take 10 years after getting patent rights leads to rise in the period of the development. Strengthen the conclusion
E- Irrevalant
