1) Earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop Earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) The plates are called

tectonic because they're in constant motion. (3) They can move because Earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) Volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) Also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) Therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) Plates may also collide. (8) When that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) For example, the collision of the plate carrying the Indian subcontinent created the Himalayan Mountains when it collided with the Asian plate.

What are the different kinds of logical fallacy
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ad Homniem-attacking the person rather than the argument

Ad Ignorantum- when you argue that something is true because it has not been proven to be false

Ad Populum- Bandwagon

Argument from Authority- An argument that concludes something is true because a presumed expert or witness has said that it is

Hasty Generalization- drawing conclusions based on insufficient or unrepresentative evidence

Slippery Slope- a fallacy that assumes that taking a first step will lead to subsequent steps that cannot be prevented.

Straw Man- When a person ignores one actual position, and presents and exaggerated one

Red Herring- ignores question asked

False Dichotomy- argues there are only two options when really there may be many

Begging the Question- Often called circular reasoning, occurs when the believability of the evidence depends on the believability of the claim.
