The body has two lines of defense against invaders such as bacteria, viruses and fungi: innate immunity and adaptive immunity. The first can destroy invaders partly by triggering inflammation that helps block the assault. lf germs breach that line of defense, adaptive immunity kicks in. Hence, it is possible to tackle cancer if adaptive immunity can be stimulated through an external mechanism, such as by artificially injecting a stimulating agent.
Which of tine Following will be most relevant to investigating the authors claim in the argument above?
1. Whether the most common stimulating mechanisms can trigger adaptive immunity that once triggered counters cancer.
2. Whether once triggered, the body‘: adaptive immunity is strong enough to tackle cancer.
3. Whether other deadly diseases such as AIDS. diabetes, etc be tackled in the same manner as cancer.
4. Whether tackling cancer would have a significant enough impact on overall health care costs to offset the expense to develop the stimulant.
5. Whether is it possible to strengthen innate immunity to tackle cancer.

This is an evaluate type argument so we you are basically looking for an assumption that the author makes. begin reading the passage looking for the conclusion and the premises.
The conclusion of this argument is "it is possible to tackle cancer if adaptive immunity can be stimulated.."
The premise is that adaptive immunity is one of our body's defenses against invaders.
The assumption of this argument is that cancer is an invader similar to those listed and that adaptive immunity will work against it. (stated in another way, the assumption is that there is no problem with the plan to tackle cancer with adaptive immunity.)
The conclusion of this argument is "it is possible to tackle cancer if adaptive immunity can be stimulated.."
