Answer:
D). Unconscionable
Explanation:
Unconscionable is a precept in contract law which depicts the extremely immoral, oppressive, or unjust laws as obstructive to good conscience. These laws overwhelmingly favor one party of the contract due to its superiority in bargaining abilities.
As per the question, the provision of 'landlord's authority to cut off heat or water' in a residential lease exemplifies such immoral or outrageous laws that can outrage the sensibility or conscience of the courts and courts have the complete authority to refuse the enforcement of such unjust laws. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
Ruling out rival hypotheses, Findings consistent with several hypotheses
require additional research to eliminate these hypotheses. More five principles
of critical thinking are: (1.) Correlation vs. Causation, the fact that two
things are associated with each other doesn’t mean that one causes the other.
(2.) Replicability, a finding must be capable of being duplicated by
independent researchers following the same recipe. (3.) Occam’s Razor,
if two hypotheses explain a phenomenon equally well, we should generally select
the simpler one. (4.) Falsifiability, claims
must be capable of being disproved. (5.) Extraordinary Claims, the more a
claim contradicts what we already know, the more persuasive the evidence must
be before we should accept it.
