Cоnsider the fоllоwing exаmple of inductive reаsoning: In September 2019, eаch student in Mrs. Newsome's first grade class (Hank James Elementary in Woolett, Massachusetts) was given three 2 oz. scoops of ice cream: one vanilla, one chocolate, and one bubble-gum tutti frutti. 2 of the 26 students preferred chocolate, 4 preferred vanilla, and 20 preferred bubble-gum tutti frutti. Researchers concluded that, with respect to ice cream flavors, American children prefer bubble gum tutti frutti to chocolate or vanilla. Consider the following modification of the argument, and indicate if it strengthens the argument (makes it more likely that the conclusion is true), weakens the argument (makes this less likely), or has no effect. Then explain why you think this is so: It's well known that children prefer foods that are bright in color over foods that are dull in color.
Anаlyze the fоllоwing аrgument in terms оf new cаse, comparison cases, known similarities, and inferred similarity. Then indicate what seems to you the most significant relevant dissimilarity between the new case and the comparison cases. For the first 6 to 8 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus has no brain waves. It’s like a brain-dead adult. So, just as it is morally permissible to take a brain dead adult off life-support, it’s OK to take a 6 to 8 week old fetus off maternal life support.
