These natural laws are incontrovertible; . . . Those who resist them will be wiped out. Biology not only tells us about animals

and plants, but also shows us the laws we must follow in our lives, and steels our wills to live and fight according to these laws. The meaning of all life is struggle.
The excerpt above is an example of a false dilemma. Which of the following choices explains the logical fallacy in this excerpt, as well as the reason it fails to prove its point?

A.
The excerpt is an example of a testimonial not a false dilemma. It fails to persuade the audience to buy more animals and plants to ensure survival.
B.
The excerpt is an example of a false dilemma because it tries to say that humans survive because they behave differently than animals and plants. The argument does prove this point.
C.
The excerpt is an example of a false dilemma because it states that humans function exactly like animals and plants. By drawing this comparison, it fails to acknowledge the many factors that affect and alter the life course of animals, plants, and humans.
D.
The excerpt contains no logical fallacies but uses true statements to persuade the audience of life’s common struggle.

Natasha2012 [34]
Assuming that you're talking about Sally ride, she was an astronaut that has took a photographic view of earth's surface from the space.

Why does egalitarian society has a lower density of men in the community?
Kay [80]
The reason for this it assumes that everyone in an egalitarian society are equal. It sounds good in theory but in reality, everyone is different in terms of ambition, ability and talent. This diversity makes some stand out from others making it difficult to have more men in such a society since they are different from one another.

Which TWO sentences in this excerpt from Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" most closely reflects the central th
tresset_1 [31]

Remark

Let's begin with the theme. What is the theme of this passage, exactly? Four people -- five if you include Dr. Heidegger -- are sitting around a circle bemoaning the fact that they have lost something not granted to anyone. They have lost their second youth. They have swallowed some water which gave them their youth only for a fleeting moment (it seems to them), and they mourn the passage of time that grants them no more youth that they had been living in for some short period.

The four felt that way. Only Dr. Heidegger seemed to have learned something that told him that he should be careful what he wished for: he might actually get it.  

We have two themes then. We have 4 who wished for their youth back and we have one who didn't want any part of it. I think we have to cover both.

The best detail for those wanting it is the old woman who apparently got her youth back and she was incredibly beautiful. Now her hands are skinny and likely wrinkled. She puts those hands to her face and wishes herself to be dead because she despises the fact that she is old (and likely all her friends are dead and she is condemned to a life of weariness. I speculate, but is certainly unhappy about the aging process). She mourns that it is over so quickly. They all do. That's sentence 3.

Only Dr. Heidegger seems to understand that they got something they should never have received in the first place. The yellow sentence beginning with "Well I bemoan it not, ... " reflects his point view as well as anything. That's sentence 5.
