Expert Solution

Column A	Column B	Explanation
As a scientist, I base my science on a combination of things. One is observation. I've seen aliens and alien technology with my own eyes so I know there is life on other planets	Appeal to Authority	When something is supposed to be true because it said by someone who has an authority over a topic., in this case the statement is expected to be believed as true as it is a statement made by a scientist
You can't apply the scientific method to evolution. It's never been observed. You can't repeat the experiment.	Appeal to Ignorance	Lack of contrary evidence is treated as sufficient conditions for something to be true
Who should the U.S. support in the Mid East crisis? The Israelis or the Arab states?	False Dilemma	The statement presents the situation which makes it look like the only two choices are supporting either Israel or Arab States, false dichotomy
We polled everyone in the cafeteria yesterday and found out that 72% of the student body believes the local newspaper is bias in its reporting.	Hasty Generalization	Students present at a particular time and place cannot be treated as full representation of the student body
If the police aren't going to do anything about the crimes, then we citizens are just going to take matters into our own hands and deal with the criminals in our own way!	Two Wrongs	Taking law into own hand to deal with criminals is a criminal offence itself, two wrongs do not make it right
