Because those with "blindsight" report that they can see nothing but still do better than chance on tests of visual stimuli dete

ction, some theorized that there was a paranormal explanation for their test results. Another hypothesis is that some blind people may use a form of echolocation to "see" what is in front of them. This alternate hypothesis best demonstrates which principle of critical thinking?

Answer:

Occam's razor

Explanation:

Formulated by the medieval philosopher William of Occam (sometimes spelled Ockham), Occam's Narvalha is a reductionist philosophical, problem-solving principle that distinguishes between equivalent theories and can be used as a technique for formulating theoretical models. In its simplest formulation, Occam's Razor will say that between two theories with equal results, which explain or predict the same phenomena, we must always choose the simplest theory.

Formulated by the medieval philosopher William of Occam (sometimes spelled Ockham), Occam's razor is a reductionist philosophical, problem-solving principle that distinguishes between equivalent theories and can be used as a technique for formulating theoretical models. In its simplest formulation, Occam's Razor will say that between two theories with equal results, which explain or predict the same phenomena, we must always choose the simplest theory. Based on this, we can conclude that the critical thinking that explains the alternative hypothesis shown in the question above about people with "blind vision" is Occam's razor.

How do these two poems differ in what they emphasize?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

B) The poet in "Old Ironsides" asks for the ship to be destroyed, while the poet in "Concord Hymn" asks that the monument stone be preserved.

Explanation:

Old Ironsides" by Oliver Wendel Holmes Sr, asks for the old ship to be destroyed or sink. We can see that the poet asks for the destruction of the ship when he says

<em>"...No more shall feel the victor's tread,</em>

<em>Or know the conquered knee;-</em>

<em>The harpies of the shore shall pluck</em>

<em>The eagle of the sea!</em>

<em> </em>

<em>O, better than her shattered hulk</em>

<em>Should sink beneath the wave;..."</em>

We can see that the old navy had its glory days, but now it is old, and it is not of use, as it was.

On the other hand, Ralph Waldo Emerson in "Concord Hymn" asks for the monument to be preserved since it is commemorating a special event. The stone monument is there to honor and remember the heroes of a battle that happened there.

We can see that the poet asks for the monument stone to be preserved when he says,

<em>"On this green bank, by this soft stream,</em>

<em>We set today a votive stone;</em>

<em>That memory may their deed redeem,</em>

<em>When, like our sires, our sons are gone.</em>

<em> </em>

<em>Bid Time and Nature gently spare</em>

<em>The shaft we raise to them and thee." </em>

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

14. A.) “Americans have a special responsibility here. The United States is the mightiest nation on the planet and the greatest contributor to the industrial component of global warming.”

15. C.) Statistics of changes in nature

16. C). Quotations from a panel of experts

18. D.) Polar bears are dying.

19. B.) Ignore the problem or make an effort to change the problem.

20. C.) He believes we have a responsibility to reduce global warming.

21. A.) It shows how dangerous global warming can be for society.

Explanation:

The article, 'Rising Tides', is a lamentation of the writer, Bob Herbert of the disastrous effect of global warming and its effects on the future condition of the world. It ends with a call to action from the American government, which it believes has the capacity to curb global warming.

14. Even though, the writer spent much of the article lamenting about the effect of global warming, his main aim was to make America realize that they have a huge role to play in managing the situation.

15. The writer references disappearance of the snow in Kilimanjaro, as well as the shattering of a rock, quoting its dimensions.

16. The quote from <em>The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, </em>a writing of scientific experts was used to justify the claim that developing nations will be worst hit from global warming.

17. His last paragraph had a serious tone to either solve the problem or pretend that it does not exist.

18. There was no mention of polar bears dying.

19. Herbert mentioned that we could ignore the problem or pretend that it does not exist.

20. Herbert already believed that we have a responsibility to reduce global warming hence his call to action.

21. Treacherous means deceptive. Situations that are deceptive in nature are dangerous and difficult to tackle.

A sentence or assertion that something is or is not the case is known as a(n) .
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

E is your answer. A sentence or assertion indicating that something is or is not the case is known as a statement, they are also called declarative or assertive sentences (a)

(a) Romeo was in love with Juliet.

Furthermore, a group of statements supporting each other is called an argument.

On the contrary, Merriam Webster dictionary defines premises as  "a statement or idea taken to be true and on which an argument or reasoning may be based".  An example of a premise would be (b)

(b) Felines are said to be suspicious of your intentions, cats are felines, therefore, they are also suspicious of your intentions.

Imperative sentences give commands, as shown in (c). They can end with a period or they may end in an exclamation point.

(c) Do your homework now!

Questions are used to find out information and always end with a question mark (?). Take for example (d)

(d) What is your name?

Finally, the predicate can be understood from the point of view of grammar or from the point of view of logic. Grammatically, the predicate is a clause telling something about the subject of the sentence (e)


(e) Yesterday, Mary walked the dog at six in the evening

Or else, it is something which is affirmed or denied with respect to an argument of a proposition.
