The ancient Kazazi tribe is considered the first group of people to domesticate corn, famously giving different varieties of corn their own unique names. The Kazazi did not have unique names for varieties of wheat, however, so it is unlikely that the Kazazi were able to domesticate wheat.
Which of the following, if true, most undermines the conclusion drawn above?
(A) The climate and soil conditions that are best for growing corn are the same conditions that are best for growing wheat.
(B) Archaeologists have discovered that the first tribe to domesticate wheat did so more than 50 years before the Kazazi domesticated corn.
(C) Tribes only give unique names to crops that they have successfully domesticated.
(D) The Kazazi did not have unique names for different varieties of potatoes or lettuce, crops the tribe is known to have domesticated.
(E) The knowledge and tools required to domesticate wheat are more sophisticated than the knowledge and tools required to domesticate corn.

I believe answer choice D is the correct one. It demonstrates that there is no relation between domestication of a crop and giving the same crop a unique name

OA is D
Kazazi tribe is considered the first group of people to domesticate corn, famously giving different varieties of corn their own unique names but the Kazazi did not have unique names for varieties of wheat, so it is unlikely that the Kazazi were able to domesticate wheat.
What it meant that when Kazazi tribe domesticate any crop, it is mandatory that they give different varieties their unique names.
To break this conclusion we can think various ways,
What if we prove they have domesticated some more crops, but they have not given unique name.
What if at that only one variety of a particular crop is there and there would be no multiple varieties of crops are there.
Let us do option elimination:
(A) The climate and soil conditions that are best for growing corn are the same conditions that are best for growing wheat. -> No it is not taking about the name, so out of scope.
(B) Archaeologists have discovered that the first tribe to domesticate wheat did so more than 50 years before the Kazazi domesticated corn.
No it is not taking about the name, so totally out of scope.
(C) Tribes only give unique names to crops that they have successfully domesticated.
This infact strengthen the conclusion, so not an option.
(D) The Kazazi did not have unique names for different varieties of potatoes or lettuce, crops the tribe is known to have domesticated.
This is exactly our answer what we thought.
(E) The knowledge and tools required to domesticate wheat are more sophisticated than the knowledge and tools required to domesticate corn.
No it is not taking about the name, so out of scope.
