@maonuo Happy to help!
This can be tricky. Answer choice (C) "neurological research" is not necessarily the same as brain size. Passage A talks about neurological research in terms of "brain imaging studies" about music (line 6), but Passage B does not present similar neurological research. Passage B mentions "face-to-face-mother-infant interactions" (line 42), but this is not a study with a direct neurological focus like brain imaging.
However, answer choice (B) "human emotion" is stated explicitly in each of the passages. This is seen in line 3 of Passage A and 35 and 57 of Passage B.
