Answer:The representativeness heuristic

Explanation:

When we want to make our case or make a decision but we don't have enough resources available to us or enough information we take a short cut and we use our pre-existing information to make judgements.

The representativeness heuristic is when we make estimations based on the likelihood that the current event can relate to our pre-existing infomation.

For example this defense attorney uses what he already knows about his client to make assumptions that represent what he doesn't know for sure about him. A defense attorney emphasizes to a jury that her client works full-time, supports his family, and enjoys leisure-time hobbies. Using this existing information the attorney has then concluded that this means his client is a typical member of the community ; which may not be true but he used what was available information to try and convince the case in his client's favor.

A fault (F) breaks three layers of sedimentary rock (S). An igneous intrusion (I1) has broken through the bottommost layer of ro
Harman [31]

Answer:

The intrusion of I1 or I2 is the youngest event. Without more information, we cannot know which igneous rock is youngest.

Explanation:

The information contained in the question above is not sufficient to determine which of the two igneous rock intrusions is the youngest event, although we can say that it was one of the two.

Even in the absence of a complete answer, it is worth describing what an ignea rock is. Ignal rocks can also be called magmatic rocks and are characterized as a terrestrial rock that originated from the solidification of magma, without having previously undergone a process of sedimentation or metamorphism. As you may already know, magma can solidify and cool on the earth's surface, or inside the earth, giving rise to extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks.
