Question

Answer 1

I would have to say B) Hasty generalizations give an impression of something that isnt grounded in fact

Answer 2

Answer:

B). Hasty generalizations give an impression of something that isn't grounded in fact.

Explanation:

Hasty generalization exemplifies a type of logical fallacy(a flaw in reasoning) that implies as the title suggests impetuous and defective conclusions or arguments based on deficient evidence. Such generalizations are the consequence of ignoring some variables(or considering limited variables or evidence) while determining a conclusion or generalization which leaves the scope for error or fault and therefore, it is often regarded as 'inductive generalization'(broad conclusions based on certain specified examples or variables).

As per the question, Such generalizations propose 'an impression to the readers that something(conclusion or argument) that isn't based on facts or grounded on insufficient facts or evidences'. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
