The answer is:

<h3>Minor premise</h3>

C. Many Americans are addicted to smoking and consume more than three packs of cigarettes a day.

<h3>Major Premise</h3>

A. The American Cancer Society has stated that smoking three packs of cigarettes a day reduces life expectancy.

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

B. Though Americans live in a well-developed country, Americans are reducing their life expectancy on a daily basis.

Syllogism is a logical argument based on deductive reasoning, in which a conclusion is supported by two premises. The minor premise consists of the subject of the conclusion; in this case, "many Americans are addicted to smoking." The major premise contains the predicate of the conclusion, such as "smoking three packs of cigarettes a day reduces life expectancy. " As a result, the conclusion is a deductive combination of the two propositions.

IceJOKER [234]

The correct option is B.

“growing in the backyard” is correctly placed. If you were to rearrange the sentence, it wouldn’t make sense. Therefore, making the placement of that statement correct.

The sentence needs to flow and be easy to read for it to have no mistakes and for the statement to be correctly placed so that the sentence,

- flows

- makes logical sense

Hope this helps
