Answer:
A. Non sequitur
Explanation:
Non Sequitur is a type of logical fallacy that forms a conclusion or response that is not logically connected to the previous statement.
From the example, <em><u>Ever since the new casino opened unemployment in this city has gotten out of control </u></em>, there is no logical connection between the increased unemployment in the city and the new casino.
There would have been a logical conclusion if the statement was written like this,
<em>People who are caught gambling are fired, so since the new casino opened, the unemployment in the city has gotten out of control.</em>
<em></em>
People who are caught gambling are fired is the premise and connects the next statements about unemployment rates increasing and the new casino in town.
Therefore, the logical fallacy that takes place is Non sequitur as it has no logical connection to the premise.

an example of the racial unconscious.
Answer: Option A.
Explanation:
The Call of the Wild is an adventurous novel authored by Jack London. The story is based on a central character who is a dog named ‘Buck.’
When the writer writes, ‘In vague ways he remembered back to the youth of the breed’, he is referring to the term racial unconscious. It means an act of remembering something but without any awareness. Every human being shares some ancient memories which are somewhere stored in the unconscious part of their mind.
In the novel we can see that the author remembers his days to the youth of breed in some indistinct ways, thus referring to racial unconscious.
