B. He is my choice for senior class president because he has a clear vision and is fair
C. Cats are easier pets than dogs because they basically take care of themselves
D. She's the best mayor we have ever had because she's passed several laws that help minorities

Respuesta :

Your answer here would be A.) Driving without a license is illegal because it's prohibited by the law.

An example of circular reasoning is:

A. Driving without a license is illegal because it is prohibited by the law.

Circular reasoning refers to a logical fallacy in which an argument starts with what it is trying to conclude. In all the examples something is being justified. Option B justifies why a certain person is chosen for class president. Option C justifies why cats are easier pets than dogs. Finally, option D justifies why a woman is the best mayor. On the other hand, option A is trying to justify why driving without a license is illegal. However, the justification given is the starting point because something illegal is something that is prohibited by the law.
