Answer:

B: Every rose has its thorn. Therefore, any rose pick will have at least one thorn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deductive reasoning considers the premisses in an argument and, following a logical process, deduces that if the premisses are true, the conclusion also must be true . Using the example sentence: Since every rose has its thorn, we can conclude that no matter what rose we choose, it will have thorns, at least one.
