An Ad populum mostly presumes that something must be true if most people believe it's true hasty generalization.

<h3>What is an Ad populum?</h3>

This refers to an argument based on the acceptance of an unproved conclusion by adducing irrelevant evidence based on the feelings, prejudices or beliefs of a large group of people.

In other word, it refers to the fallacious argument which is based on claiming a truth or affirming something is good because the majority thinks so.

Because of this, the Ad populum mostly presumes that something must be true if most people believe it's true hasty generalization.

Therefore, the Option A is correct.
