Answer 1

Answer:

1. Hasty Generalization - An inference drawn from insufficient evidence.

2. Either/Or - Unfair oversimplification of an issue by providing only two options as a possible solution.

3. Slippery Slope - Exaggeration of the likely consequences of an action, designed to show that a misstep today could result in a disaster in the future.

4. Bandwagon - Arguments urging you to follow the same path that everyone else is taking.

5. Ad Hominem - When you attack a person's character instead of the quality of their ideas

6. Straw Man - Misrepresenting or twisting someone's argument so it's easier to attack and knock down

7. False cause - In general, the false cause fallacy occurs when the "link between premises and conclusion depends on some imagined causal connection that probably does not exist"

8. Red Herring - A red herring is something that misleads or distracts from a relevant or important question.
