The correct answer would be (B.) The thesis statement
The correct answer is D. Yes, because the claim is the same as its premise
Explanation:
Begging the question is a type of fallacy, this means the use of incorrect reasoning, in which the premise or argument is not supported but instead a conclusion is taken from the argument itself, this implies in begging the question the premise is assumed to be true and the conclusion derives from it, in this way the premise is used to support itself. In the case of " it's time to go to bed because it's bedtime" the premise is "it's time to go to bed" but there is no argument or reason to support the premise, but the premise itself is assumed as true "because it's bedtime" which leads to the argument and the conclusion being the same. This implies this is a begging question because the claim or conclusion is the same that the premise as the premise is assumed to be true by itself.
