That mammals first came to Europe less than 15 million years ago, through what is now Egypt, into West Europe was an accepted tenet of paleontology. But paleontologists now theorize that mammals came to East Europe first, after migrating across modern-day Asia, and then spread westward, based on recent excavations of mammal remains in East Europe dating from 27 million years ago.
Which of the following, if it were discovered, would be pertinent evidence against the new theory?
A. Signs of mammal presence 14 million years ago were found in excavations near Germany.
B. Some evidence of mammal occupation in West Europe areas predates any such evidence in areas in East Europe.
C. The oldest known West Europe mammal habitat had a cooler climate than the 27-million-year-old East European site.
D. The mammal habitat in East Europe that was used 27 million years ago was used continuously until 6 million years ago.
E. World sea levels lowered dramatically during the first Ice Age, between 11 million and 15 million years ago.

The answer is D in my opinion, I might be wrong but I'm still gonna have a go!
new theory: paleontologists now theorize that mammals came to East Europe first, after migrating across modern-day Asia, and then spread westward, based on recent excavations of mammal remains in East Europe dating from 27 million years ago.
if it were discovered, would be pertinent evidence against the new theory.
A. is out of scope, we don't have any information about Germany. even if the answer to that is yes or no.
B. was stuck between this and D but this uses "some" so I thought its a distortion
C why do we care if it was cooler or warmer?
D. This discovery can prove the evidence flawed and weaken it (hopefully)
E. I love ice age 2 but i don't think it has any relationship to this
I'm going with D,
Bunuel these Kaplan questions are getting me sweaty.

Old theory: Mammals first came from Egypt to West Europe less than 15 million years ago.
New theory:Mammals first came from Asia to East Europe and then spread Westward. (based on recent excavation data of remains dating 27million years ago.)
We need to weaken the New Theory:
A. Signs of mammal presence 14 million years ago were found in excavations near Germany.
We are concerned about where the mammals came first.(East or West) It's giving me data about Central Europe. Not helping either way.
B. Some evidence of mammal occupation in West Europe areas predates any such evidence in areas in East Europe.
My logic here is for any occupation to start the resource needs to be present there first and then the knowledge to harness that resource should also be there.
So if mammal occupation started in West Europe first means two things
Either the West were first to capitalise on the resource which might have came later to west than east or its all the way west were first to get everything both the resource and the knowledge in that case it will weaken the New theory.
Let's keep it.
C. The oldest known West Europe mammal habitat had a cooler climate than the 27-million-year-old East European site.
Effect of climate on mammals is nowhere discussed. -not useful.
D. The mammal habitat in East Europe that was used 27 million years ago was used continuously until 6 million years ago.
How is it weakening the New theory.? It's just providing me with further details.
E. World sea levels lowered dramatically during the first Ice Age, between 11 million and 15 million years ago.
Irrelevant.
