Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
An explanandum is usually complex and has several aspects that could be explained. It is not perfectly simple with only one aspect to explain. Additionally, it is not assumed to be false and is not chosen after the hypotheses have all been identified. It is not assigned a number between 1 and 5 to indicate its complexity.
