原题
Whereas Joan Lockard's 1984 study of captive gorillas reported more right-handedness than left-handedness, Jane Goodall's 1963 study of wild chimpanzees did not. According to a meta-analysis of studies of nonhuman primates, captive populations are more likely to be described as right-handed than wild populations are. Statistical analysis indicates a handedness study would need a minimum of 176 individuals to show a representative result; however, the study by Lockard included a total population of 8, and the study by Goodall included a total population of 8. This suggests that ______
Which choice most logically completes the text?
Aneither the study by Lockard nor the study by Goodall provides sufficient evidence to make a meaningful comparison about handedness in primates.
Bthe study by Lockard reliably represents handedness in captive primates, but the study by Goodall likely does not reliably represent handedness in wild primates.
CGoodall likely underestimated the prevalence of right-handedness among the wild chimpanzees in the study.
Dthe study by Lockard reliably represents handedness in captive primates but not in wild primates.
