Answer:

Slippery slope.

Explanation:

A fallacy is demonstrated as the flaw or error in the reasoning of the argument which makes it unsound and invalid.

Slippery slope fallacy is described as the flaw in an argument that falsely asserts a minor or small step leading to a series of major events that are quite significant to a particular consequence.

As per the description, the given argument displays 'slippery slope' fallacy as the minor event('the animal-rights activists get their foot in the door') leading to a series of events('if they sell us on the idea that animals have rights, next...insects') which would bring significant yet unintended consequences(' will lead to the decimation of our agricultural industry', 'starvation of human race will follow'). Thus, the argument fails logically to establish the appropriate cause leading to the significant effect and hence, displays <u>'slippery slope'</u> fallacy.

Which set of cell organelles are involved in cell division
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Mitochondria produce the energy required to perform processes such as cell division, growth, and cell death. This in itself shows that the nucleus plays an important part in cell division and in directing the development of the fertilized egg into an embryo. The nucleus is, of course, required for cell division, but it also determines the type of structure which the cell eventually develops into.

what can the reader infer about the monk's character based on the fact that all of his stories contain the same tragic moral? a.
lapo4ka [179]

In the Canterbury tale by Geoffrey Chaucer, the reader can infer the monk's character based on the fact that all of his stories contain the same tragic moral is that he loses himself in the sermon he is preaching to the audience.

The monk's tale fits the category of the parable because it tells the results of different people's good and bad behavior. The Monk tale is a series of tragedies that represents the news that wealth and position are just an illusion. He refers to the example of many falling from high to low ends, such as the example of Lucifer falling from heaven. Through such examples and stories, he continues to show the people who have fallen from grace.

The model of tragedies that Monk offers is a Boethian one that is which is a reminder of the versatility of life itself, to bring on top to those who are crashing down on the grounds and that the tendency of the feminine, whimsical fortune to spin her wheels. Hence, it is a simple narrative and Boethian reminder that high status often ends inadequately.
