Answer:

Explanation:

the hindsight bias refers to people tendencies to see an situation that they already seen before as predictable. They will assume that the outcome will be  pretty much the same as what they've experienced before.

From the excerpt above, we can see that Alexandra and Belinda the research that they read as 'the truth' without even conducting further investigation.

This most likely happened because both of them already has a pre-conceived notion regarding cosmetic surgery.

Sometimes, both state governments and the federal government have the same authority to act, something called concurrent powers.
