The student printed the information from the American Medical Association because:

• A. Because the first option
• B. Because the second option
• C. The third option
• D. Both the second and third choice

Answer: (D)

When an action can be explained by more than one justification, the strongest answer is the one that recognizes both reasons. In this item, the student’s decision to print information from the American Medical Association is supported by two separate explanations in the choices. The option that states both explanations are true best captures why the action occurred because it reflects all the factors at play, not just one.

That’s why this choice is the most accurate: it accounts for multiple influences rather than isolating a single motive. The other single-reason options would leave out part of the justification, making them incomplete.
