Answer:

c. "It reduces the heart rate, AV conduction, and contractility.

Which thought process is an example of inductive reasoning?
blagie [28]

The correct answer is - A. All dogs are mammals. Peanut is a dog. Hence, Peanut is a mammal.

The inductive reasoning in essence is a method of reasoning is which the premises are viewed as providing some evidence for what is the truth of the conclusion.

In this case, ''all dogs are mammals'' gives us the basis for the conclusion. There's a dog named Peanut, and since all dogs are mammals, Peanut is mammal too because it is a dog. In the first part of the sentence we have a premise that gives us an evidence, which put together with the description gives us the conclusion, or rather gives us truthful conclusion.
