It is inductive reasoning: generalizing from a small sample to a bigger population. Deductive reasoning would be, if the sentences were in the other order. It's also not faulty, as it's not contradictory.

<u>c. Inductive reasoning</u>

Inductive reasoning is a logical process in which we make broad generalizations or "theories" from the specific observation of an action, event, person, etc. such as in the statement given. The narrator saw an ability (flexibility) in a specific group of people (the wrestlers they have seen), and then determines that all wrestlers must have that same ability.

This type of reasoning is the opposite of deductive reasoning which goes from a general assumption or hypothetical theory to a specific observation "All wrestlers are flexible. Therefore, those men sitting there are flexible too"

Tomtit [17]

The correct answer is:

The Denny Party

The Denny Party, a group of American pioneers, which settled at Alki Point on November 13, 1851 and were credited with founding Seattle, Washington. Even though George Vancouver was the first European to visit this area in 1792, the date of the founding of Seattle is more related with the arrival of the Denny Party scouts in September 25, 1851.

What benefits did Europe gain as a result of the colonization of Africa?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The European colonizer looked for more raw materials that were needed to manufacture goods in Europe. While they also needed a new marketplace and Africa helped with that too, that was not the primary benefit that the colonizers got. Africa had a lot of raw materials that were untouched and Europeans used that to their advantage.
