circular reasoning

false assumption

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.

<span>The given choices are all relevant to what is asked. They can all be used depending on the type of essay you are crafting. If you are writing a humorous message, a humorous anecdote as an ending can be effective. If you’re writing a formal, informative essay, a formal summary of your overall message would make sense. If you are promoting your own ideals and beliefs, you can either ask the reader to take some kind of action or end on a note that's likely to stick in the reader's mind. There is no definite answer here since it would largely depend on your essay type. </span>

Answer:

A paragraph  is a self-contained unit of discourse in writing dealing with a particular point or idea. A paragraph consists of one or more sentences. The Greek ' evolved into the pilcrow, which in English manuscripts in the Middle Ages can be seen inserted inline between sentences. The hedera leaf  has also been used in the same way.

In ancient manuscripts, another means to divide sentences into paragraphs was a line break  followed by an initial at the beginning of the next paragraph. An initial is an oversized capital letter, sometimes outdented beyond the margin of the text. This style can be seen, for example, in the original Old English manuscript of Beowulf. Outdenting is still used in English typography, though not commonly. Bringhurst explains as follows:

The function of a paragraph is to mark a pause, setting the paragraph apart from what precedes it. If a paragraph is preceded by a title or subhead, the indent is superfluous and can therefore be omitted. An em space is the most commonly used paragraph indent.

When referencing a paragraph, typographic symbol may be used: "See § Background".
