The fallacy used to his/her claim is by begging the questions.

Begging the questions (petitio principii) is where the conclusion is assumed in one of the premises. This is a logical fallacy in which the writer or the speaker assumes the statement under examination to be true. In simple explanation, to beg the question is to assume something that you have no right to assume.

Describe the New Jersey plan and the Virginia plan. Which one would you choose? Why?
hram777 [196]
The Virginia Plan was favored by large states. It had two houses of congress and representation was based on population. It was to create a strong national government.

The New Jersey Plan was favored by small states. It had one house of congress and stated each state should have equal representation. It was similar to the articles of confederation.

I would choose the Virginia Plan. Their representation was based on each states population. This would allow for fair say in government matters because a state would only have as many votes as people.

Which country’s desire to control the Congo River led to conflict?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

French

Explanation:

The French Congo began at Brazzaville on 10 September 1880 as a protectorate over the Bateke people along the north bank of the Congo River.The plan to develop the colony was to grant massive concessions to some thirty French companies. These were granted huge land on the promise they would be developed.

French claims by Pierre de Brazza were quickly acted on by the French military which took control of what is now the Republic of the Congo in 1881 and Guinea in 1884. Italy became part of the Triple Alliance, an event which upset Bismarck's carefully laid plans and led Germany to join the European invasion of Africa.

The theory of structuralism refers to the study of the primitive elements of mental process.
