Stuck between C and E

What is the difference between C and E? Is C incorrect because it is saying that Roma is party the cause for the unclear applications?

Hello @Bauer22,

I think you are exactly right. The author never says that ethnic groups like the Roma are the reason for a lack of clear definitions. The causal relationship in C is not supported by the passage. Rather, the author is saying that a lack of definitions is a problem for the Roma.

This is a very good lesson for you. Pay close attention to answer choices that claim cause and effect, and make sure that there is support for that claim. You are going to be tested on this again.

@samA why is the answer not A? Passage A never states that this is a problem, but just that these ambiguous definitions don't apply to the Roma
