Explanation:
The terms used here are fallacies and they have been correctly matched to the statements above.
A fallacy is the use of faulty, invalid or inaccurate reasoning to make an argument.
Fallacy is used by us many times in our day to day correspondence with others. We use it to try and 'win' an argument with someone without even knowing we are committing a fallacy.
For example, telling someone that because you cheated in a test and got high grades, therefore, everyone that gets high grades in a test cheated is a fallacy of hasty generalization.
Answer: C. an independent clause (A. a coordinating conjunction) Explanation: Although nothing is underlined, I think the question stiil can be answered. But first, a quick revision. Independent clause is the one that conveys a complete thought and contains enough information to stand on its own. On the othet hand, dependent clause can only express a meaning if it is linked to an independent clause via the subordinating conjunction. In our sentence, both clauses, "The harsh wind scoured the scant remaining leaves from the trees" and "A desolate landscape remained in its wake" are independent clauses and as such they are linked together via a coordinating conjunction "and". So, if any of these two clauses is underlined then the correct answer is "independent clause". However, if the conjunction "and" is underlined, then the answer is "coordinating conjunction".
