This logical fallacy is called "ad hominem", which means "to the man" in latin. It means that, instead of debating about the specific question, you rather attack the person, in an attempt to discredit him and his words.

It is a logical fallacy because, when debating about anything, you should always and only talk about the actual point, instead of considering who said what.

If a serial killer claims that 2+2 equals 4, you can say something like "don't listen to him! He's a serial killer!". Yes, he may be one of the worst human being to have ever lived, but it doesn't change that this specific claim he made is true.

Transitions should not be used:

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Transitions are these words:

A is not the answer because transitions should be used to connect the steps of a process. That’s the whole purpose of them.

A clincher sentence is a summary sentence. Using transitions for a summary isnt exactly ideal, although sometimes certain instances require the use of transitions. I’m honestly not sure if that answer is correct or not.

Transitions are used to connect important ideas.

Transitions don’t exactly have to be used in the second sentence of every paragraph. Sometimes, a paragraph contains sentences that are related but don’t need to be connected.

So it’s between B. and D.

I’m more inclined to choose B, but I’m not sure.

Sorry if its wrong.
