Answer:

Answer E: undermine the traditional basis of a claim about conventional medicine’s legitimacy

Explanation:

Correct. The author discusses Eddy’s study in the context of elaborating on the question she asked in the fourth paragraph, “But how scientific is conventional ‘scientific’ medicine anyway?” This question challenges the perspective on conventional medicine described in the first paragraph, which sees conventional medicine as “scientific” and alternative medicine as “pseudoscience.” Since Eddy’s study concluded that conventional medical decision making was not based on strong scientific evidence, it provides evidence that refutes the traditional argument for the legitimacy of conventional medicine.

What is the moral of the mirror of erised in harry potter book 1
Anna11 [10]
It has been a long time since I have read this book but I would say the moral of the Mirror of Erised is to not dwell on the past. To not focus on what you do not have and instead to focus on what you do have and make the most of it. Harry was so intrigued by seeing his family in the mirror that he no longer accepted that he was an orphan and Dum bledore had to put an end to it. Instead of dwelling on desires, make the most of what you already have.

Hope this helps! If you need any more help or further explanation just let me know! :)
