Explanation for Question 26 From the Reading Section on the Official Sat Practice Test 10
Question 26 says which conclusion is best supported by the findings of allow since 2 1993 experiment. So let's go back into the passage and see where they discuss 3 lessons. 1993 experiment. We can see that this comes in 4 the second paragraph and what they say about 5 the results are found starting in line 26, 6 that says they showed that soft stroking prompted two different signals, 7 one immediate and one delayed. So a few things before we go to look 8 at the answer choices, this soft stroking can be associated with 9 pressure. So a small amount of pressure prompts, 10 one fast signal and one slow signal. 11 So let's go back and look at the answer choices and see which ones 12 best correspond. 13 So answer choice a says stimulation at bodily extremities can be 14 sensed as rapidly as stimulation closer to the brain. 15 So this answer choice is going to be incorrect because it's not talking about 16 their findings about the results of the experiment. 17 Aren't talking about the bodily extremities versus the breath. 18 It's merely talking about how soft pressure results in two kinds of sensations. 19 So then if we'd go on to answer choice B, 20 it says the presence of hair and human skin lessens the speed with which 21 nerves conduct signals. So again, 22 hair, the presence of hair is not mentioned in that statement on the findings 23 of the experiment. So that is why answer choice B would be incorrect. 24 C says gentle pressure is sends not only by fast fibers, 25 but also ...
