Answer:

set point theory                                                                        

Explanation:

Set point theory: The term "set point theory" is described as a phenomenon that suggests that an individual's body weight is being regulated at a preferred or predetermined level through a "feedback control mechanism". However, in an adult, body weight is being maintained at some "relatively stable level" for quite a long period in time. In other words, it refers that an individual's body will fight to "maintain" a specific body weight.

In the question above, the given statement illustrates the set point theory.

Answer:

<em>I can see that there are no choices.</em>

fallacy of bandwagon

Explanation:

A "logical fallacy" refers to the error of reasoning or logical gap that makes an argument invalid.

The situation above commits the fallacy of the bandwagon because the argument is being supported only according to a significant number of population. This is a fallacy because it doesn't necessarily mean all of the retired persons are unhappy about the level of Social Security assistance due to the opinion of 30 persons who agreed that they were unhappy. It becomes a "standalone justification" of the validity of an argument. We cannot judge the happiness or unhappiness of all retired persons according only to a group of 30 persons <em>(even though they were chosen from different parts of the country). </em>

So, this explains the answer.
