Answer:

run-on (but technically, it is a comma splice -- but that answer option is not provided)

Explanation:

There are two independent clauses here. Two independent clauses must never be connected with a comma -- unless you add a coordinating conjunction. Alternatively, you may use a period with a capital letter, or you may use a semi-colon with a lower-case letter.

examples:

Softball was once an Olympic sport, and it was a way to showcase the talent of athletes.

Softball was once an Olympic sport. It was a way to showcase the talent of athletes.

Softball was once an Olympic sport; it was a way to showcase the talent of athletes.

A true run-on sentence would be this:

Softball was once an Olympic sport it was a way to showcase the talent of athletes.

Note that there is NO punctuation between clauses.

“I drank bottled water and now I am sick. The water must have made me sick” (post hoc ergo proctor hoc)

“People who don’t support the increase of state minimum wage hate the poor” (straw man)

“If we ban hummers because they’re bad for the environment, then eventually we’ll ban all cars. So we shouldn’t ban hummers.” (Slippery slope)

Either/Or. an example can be “we can either stop using cars or we can destroy the earth” this is a fallacy because it is making assumptions and over exaggerating. It is also assuming cars are the only problem destroying the earth, which is incorrect.
