E. Composition

Answer 1

Answer:

option D: slippery slope

Explanation:

a slippery slope is mostly said to be a logical fallacy fallacy as it entails critical thinking and logic.  A slippery slope fallacy is simply said to be when an individual states that a frequent occurrence of a particular event  may lead to  big or major even which are usually a bad event or occurrence.  usually  the end of an argument is based on a chain reaction and there is no evidence to  prove or think that the chain reaction will actually take place.  A slippery slope fallacy is of the notion that a series of action if allowed may lead to one unfortunate or bad event/reaction. An example is if the government legalize abortion without restriction, this may cause the young and old to engage in the act of sexual intercourse without noting the consequences.
