Nimfa-mama [501]
Yes, there have been many times when you have to lie to get out of a situation. For example, I remember a time when I was being asked humiliating questions by a total stranger, so I lied and said that I had to go due to family issues including my mother. It is okay to lie in uncomfortable situations.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

c Appeals to Authority

Explanation:

The sentence of the question is using the fallacy of appeal to authority. This fallacy establishes that something is valid only because an authority in the field says so.

In the sentence, the person will use Colgate simply because the dentist told him to do so. While this is not necessarily an unvalid reason, it would be best if the person found out by himself whether Colgate is the best toothpaste option for him or not.
