Must be TrueDiff: Medium
Logic Breakdown
Passage Summary: Garden centers don't agree on what "miniature" means for fruit trees, but there is one rule: if a tree can't grow in a pot, it shouldn't be called miniature.
Reasoning: Nurseries vary in their use of the term "miniature," but a tree must be suitable for growing in a tub or pot to be correctly labeled as such.
Analysis: Since this is a 'Must be True' question, we need to combine the provided facts to find a valid deduction. We are given a conditional rule: if a tree is not suitable for a pot, it cannot be correctly labeled miniature. By contrapositive, if a tree is correctly labeled miniature, it must be suitable for a pot. Look for an answer choice that reflects this logical requirement or the fact that some nurseries currently apply the label to trees that others do not.

Correct Answer

“Unless SSM is suitable” translates to “if SSM is not suitable,” and then the rule guarantees any such “miniature” label is incorrect. Since some nurseries label SSM as miniature, it follows that if SSM is not suitable, some nurseries mislabel this variety.
