- How can photos be used as alternate forms of argument?
It can be used as a visual proof to convince others about your point.
Argument often derived from personal conviction. This personal conviction often really hard to get rid off even if the oppositions provides a clear and logical argument to debunk it.
Visual proof often harder to deny since it can depict a certain situation in a more convincing way rather than personal recollection . Often times, this can be a lot stronger compared to trying to convince others simply by using words.
- Can a photo convince you to take a specific action or to think a certain way?
Absolutely.
For example, Let's say that you hear 2 people arguing in the court. Person A accused person B for killing person C at December 12th. Person B denied the accusation.
At this point, you probably not really sure who's in the right.
But, let's say that<u> person B showed a photo that proved he is actually in another city</u> on December 12th and it is impossible for him to be at the crime scene on the time of person C attack.
That photo could easily win the argument in person B's favor and convince others who witness it that he is telling the truth.
The correct answer is: American Cordillera.
American Cordillera is the mountain range that is stretched from the north of North America to the South of South America. It includes, along Andes, Rocky Mountains and Alaska Range and the Mountains in the Baja California Peninsula.
