Editorialist: Society is obliged to bestow the privileges of adulthood upon its members once they are mature enough to accept the corresponding responsibilities. But science has established that physiological development is completed in most persons by age seventeen. Since this maturing process has been completed by most seventeen-year-olds, there is no reason not to grant these citizens all of privileges of adulthood.
The editorialist’s argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the ground that it
(A) assumes that it is trying to prove
(B) too hastily reaches a general conclusion on the basis of a few examples
(C) equivocates with respect to a central concept
(D) too readily accepts acclaim by appeal to inappropriate authority
(E) ignores the fact that some people are mature at age sixteen

(A) No, it doesn't assume that seventeen year olds should be granted all privileges of adulthood, it sets out to prove it.
(B) This conclusion is not general (it is quite specific to seventeen year-olds) and is not based on any "examples," it is based on evidence.
(C) Yes, the argument equates "mature enough to accept the corresponding responsibilities" with "Completed the maturing process of physiological development" and is the right answer
(D) Science is the appropriate authority in this case, and the argument is not appealing to it, just referring to its findings.
(E) This argument does not claim that sixteen year-olds shouldn't be given all the privileges of adulthood, only that seventeen year-olds should.
