Answer:
A) establish the historical argument supporting conventional medical practices before considering its validity
Explanation:
In this paragraph, the author describes how the medical profession came to define itself as “scientific” in opposition to other types of healing that it defined as “pseudoscience.” In doing so, she presents the medical profession’s own perspective on the difference between conventional and alternative medicine, a perspective she will go on to challenge in the remainder of the passage. By presenting this history, she shows that there is an ongoing conversation regarding which medical practices should be defined as “scientific.” This allows her to enter the debate about the validity of this claim by acknowledging earlier contributions to this ongoing conversation.
