Not sure we understand your question.

The criteria for the correct answer choice here is "Not Necessarily True."

This question stem is asking "Each of the following statements must be true EXCEPT:"

So we are looking for the answer choice that does not have to be true, i.e. not necessarily true.

Remember, not necessarily true is the logical opposite of must be true.

Hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I did not understand what the question root was. For example I didn't realize it meant that one of the statements must but logically the false and must be true are logically invalidated I thought it was a collective consideration

Memorize the yen and yang concept as the instructor point them as being the polar opposites. Then memorize both yen for both try and false. I have to go through this as a mantra every day as well as throughout the day.

I have an issue at times because I scan the stem instead of taking the time to understand the stem and question.

Hi @Lamont,

You are not alone in that. Especially as you master the question stem identification, there is always the temptation to speed through them. This question is a great reminder as to why you should always read them carefully.
