16. It is not reasonable to search out "organic" foods--those grown without the application of synthetic chemicals ?as the only natural foods. A plant will take up the molecules it needs from the soil and turn them into the same natural compounds, whether or not those molecules come from chemicals applied to the soil. All compounds made by plants are part of nature , so all are equally natural.

The argument proceeds by

(A) redefining a term in a way that is favorable to the argument

(B) giving a reason why a recommended courses of action would be beneficial

(C) appealing to the authority of scientific methods

(D) showing that a necessary condition for correctly applying the term "organic" is not satisfied

(E) reinterpreting evidence presented as supporting the position being rejected
答案是A请教下，term是指什么在原文。我不能够很确定。谢谢！！！是natural food?

term是“natural”，organic foods定义里的natural是指不用化学合成剂生长的，而argument里把natural理解为凡事经植物吸收后产生的合成物都叫自然的。偷换概念了
