Directions: In the following items a pair of statements (S1, S2) is given. Select the most appropriate and relevant co-relationship of the second statement to the first from among the options (a), (b), (c) and (d), and mark your response on the Answer Sheet accordingly.
S1. The final outcome can never be predicted incontrovertibly.
S2. All outcomes are based on variables that cannot always be fully understood.
reinforces the first to an extent
The second statement "All outcomes are based on variables that cannot always be fully understood" adds a qualification to the idea of predicting outcomes. It explains that due to the presence of variables that cannot always be fully understood, predicting outcomes is not always reliable. This aligns with the first statement, which emphasizes that the final outcome cannot be predicted incontrovertibly.
However, the second statement doesn't fully reinforce the first; it provides additional context that supports the uncertainty described in the first statement. Therefore, it "reinforces the first to an extent," but does not fully restate or repeat the idea, making **Option 2** the correct answer.
