Answer:

Perhaps Vespucci's most important contribution, however, was his realization that the continent he was exploring was not Asia. It was, in fact, a continent previously unknown to most Europeans. Eventually the continents of the western hemisphere became known as North and South America – named after Amerigo Vespucci.

Explanation:

He was praised for finding land beyond the current European frontier. This land was America and not Asia which was previously what people thought.

If given all the statements or premises are true then it is easy to draw a conclusion and deductive logic can be applied.

Deductive reasoning is a top down logic kind of reasoning whereas bottom up logic is inductive reasoning this is because when we deduct our reasoning we start from the top of what we are solving until we reach the bottom then we can make a conclusion like when we solve mathematical issues.
