What distinguishes a premise from a conclusion in an argument?

  1. Must Be False

  2. What is a conclusion?

  3. Logical Opposition

  4. Not Necessarily True

The correct answer is: What is a conclusion?

In an argument, the premise is a statement that provides the support or evidence for the conclusion. The conclusion, on the other hand, is the statement that the premises are meant to prove or support. Therefore, understanding what constitutes a conclusion is crucial in differentiating it from a premise in an argument. The other options are not directly related to the distinction between a premise and a conclusion.
