Answer:

The correct answer is option A. constellation.

Explanation:

An apositive is a noun or nominal phrase positioned next to another noun, <u>which changes its name or describes it in a different way. </u>

It can be a simple word or some longer phrase.

In general, the information provided by an apositive could be deleted without affecting the meaning.

In this case, one could say<em> "Sagittarius is near the Galactic Center of the Milky Way."</em> without using the word <em>constellation </em>and the sentence would still mean the same.

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Fallacy can be defined as a mistaken or false belief that are based on illogical arguments or reasoning.

However, a lot of people might actually think it to true but it isn't. There are various types of fallacy, these include; black or white, non sequitur, ad hominem, bandwagon, appeal to authority, straw man, and oversimplification or hasty generalization.

Given the following statement of fallacy;

"The last two mass murderers were from Michigan. Obviously, people from Michigan are dangerous."

Thus, this is Hasty Generalization Fallacy because it isn't logically justified by enough empirical evidence.

Hasty generalization is a type of fallacy that involves making a claim or reaching a conclusion based on very little evidence or instances of an event.
