Answer:
d) analogy
Explanation:
Analogy refers to a linguistic comparison of two objects that emphasizes the similarities between those two objects. They are usually used to describe a new concept by comparing it to something that is more familiar to the audience.
In this example, <u>the city planner was giving a speech on sending citizens appropriate text messages regarding city and states issues. To make her point she used the example of the problems that were caused when the state of Hawaii accidentally sent out a text about an incoming missile (which in that time created panic in the population).</u>
Thus, she is trying to <u>make her point by comparing it to a situation that is more familiar (the Hawaii accidental text) to the people she's talking to.</u>
Thus, we can say that she used an analogy.
Answer:
b. the exponential principle
Explanation:
In sociology, the term exponential principle refers to a theory that states that <u>when a discovery is made and the technology allows it, the uses for this discovery tend to grow in a geometric radio</u>, in other way, the uses grow in a very large rate and <u>they start multiplying very fast.</u>
In this example, the discovery of glass gave birth to lenses, costume jewelry, window panes, and test tubes. We can see that the discovery of glass gave birth to many uses to it such as lenses, costume jewelry, test tubes and other things and <u>suddenly, glass was being used in many different ways and these ways started multiplying themselves</u>. Therefore such developments reflect b. the b. the exponential principle.
