2. A transcendental deduction justifies a priori application to objects, whereas an empirical deduction explains acquisition through experience.
3. Sensations prompt cognition into activity, but this account of its development cannot justify pure concepts.
4. Geometry relies on sensible intuition, while pure concepts of understanding raise questions about their validity and limits.
5. Space and time condition appearances, but the categories do not obviously condition how objects are given in intuition.
6. Causation requires necessity and strict universality, neither of which observation or induction can establish.
