The milk of many mammals contains cannabinoids, substances that are known to stimulate certain receptors in the brain. To investigate the function of cannabinoids, researchers injected newborn mice with a chemical that is known to block cannabinoids from reaching their receptors in the brain.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

【选项】The milk of mammals would be less nutritious if it did not contain cannabinoids.
