While some use the visions they claim to have seen during a near-death experience (friends, loved ones, a tunnel of light) as evidence of a peaceful afterlife, scientists have suggested that such experiences may actually be the result of a massive release of endorphins in a dying brain. which concept of critical thinking is most important in this example?
a. extraordinary claims
b. correlation versus causation
c. replicability
d. ruling out rival hypotheses

The correct option is D) Ruling out rival hypothesis

Explanation:

In scientific approaches, ruling out rival hypothesis can be described as before explaining our hypothesis, we annul or give justifications for the annulment of the other hypothesis which exist for that claim. Before offering our explanations, we should first try to disprove the former explanations or depictions.

In the scenario discussed in the question, scientists tend to first annul the former hypothesis about death by providing justifications that the visions which we see at the time of death are due to the release of massive endorphins.
