"Legal evil lives where the brood follows the dam." What do you think this riddle may mean?

English

Answer:

One owns the young offspring if he owns the mother.

Explanation:

The given line represents the doctrine which was created in ancient times. The sentence is, "Legal evil lives where the brood follows the dam."

Here, the word 'dam' means the mother while 'brood' means their off springs.

This doctrine determines the ownership of the animals and cattle such as bull, horses, etc.

It means that if anybody owns the mother that is the 'dam', he also owns the offspring, the 'broods'.

In the year 1842, the US Supreme court also extended this doctrine to humans saying that any slave born to slaves will also be a slave for life even if slavery is banned in that state.

levacccp [35]

I would choose options (A) providing facts and (D) using deductive reasoning.  Since the deductive reasoning is based on premises (providing fact would be the action needed) for its operation. When we reason deductively, we use known facts to arrive at logical conclusions that we know are true.
