Hasty or sweeping generalization
Download as pptx, pdf0 likes3,929 views
This document defines and provides examples of the logical fallacy of hasty or sweeping generalization. It occurs when a conclusion is reached based on limited evidence, such as generalizing one's experience with their son at nursery school to conclude all children should attend, or meeting some polite children from a certain area and concluding all children from there must be well-behaved.

This document discusses evidence for evolution including fossil records, comparative anatomy, embryonic development, and biochemical analysis. It describes fossil records as preserved remains of organisms found in earth's crust, and methods for determining fossil age. Comparative anatomy is discussed in terms of homologous and analogous structures. Embryonic development shows similarities across species. Biochemical analysis compares amino acid sequences. Jean Baptiste Lamarck and Charles Darwin's theories of evolution through acquired characteristics and natural selection are presented. Natural selection results from variation and competition for limited resources.Volcano
VolcanoJessica Solanes

A volcano has a crater on its surface that leads down to a magma chamber below ground containing molten rock called magma. When the magma rises up through the pipe conduit and erupts out of the volcano, it emerges as lava on the surface or in large lava lakes within the crater.Laws of stratigraphy
Laws of stratigraphyAlay Desai
油
This document discusses the key principles of stratigraphy, which is the branch of geology that studies the layers of rock in the Earth's crust and the history they record. It outlines several important principles including superposition, original horizontality, lateral continuity, crosscutting relationships, and fossil succession. These principles are used to interpret the relative ages of rock layers and the geological events they provide evidence of, such as mountain building, climate change, and evolution of plant and animal life over time. Examples are given to illustrate principles like unconformities, folding, faulting, and how they impact the interpretation of rock sequences.Critical Thinking: Slippery slope
Critical Thinking: Slippery slopeLouisatom

The document discusses the slippery slope fallacy. It is when an arguer claims that one small action will inevitably lead to a significant, unwanted consequence through a series of steps. The fallacy tries to show that the initial action is immoral because it opens the door to the bad outcome. Examples given include arguing that going to a music festival will inevitably turn someone into a hippie, that gambling once will lead to homelessness, and that smoking one cigarette will cause death from emphysema.Sea-Floor Spreading

1. The document discusses sea-floor spreading, which is the process where new oceanic crust forms at mid-ocean ridges as tectonic plates move away from each other.
2. Evidence that supports sea-floor spreading includes magnetic stripe patterns in the ocean floor and samples from ocean crust that show it is younger near ridges and older further away.
3. Oceanic crust is basaltic rock that forms at ridges and is then recycled in subduction zones, making it generally younger than continental crust which does not undergo this recycling process.Ang_ISYU_NG_GLOBALISASYON.pptx.pptx

1. Harry Hess proposed the theory of seafloor spreading in 1962, which provided evidence that Wegener's theory of continental drift was correct. Hess theorized that new ocean crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges through volcanic eruptions and then spreads outwards, pushing older crust farther away.
2. Evidence for seafloor spreading includes rock formations only possible from cooled lava, magnetic stripe patterns in ocean crust recording reversals of Earth's magnetic field, and drilling samples showing younger rock nearer to ridges.
3. Seafloor spreading is driven by convection currents in the Earth's mantle; subduction zones allow parts of ocean crust to sink back into the mantle and regulate ocean size.Plate Boundaries

The document describes the four main types of plate boundaries:
1) Divergent boundaries occur at spreading centers where new crust is created and plates move apart, such as at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
2) Convergent boundaries exist where plates collide and one is subducted under the other, forming deep ocean trenches.
3) Transform boundaries result from two plates sliding past each other horizontally, such as along the San Andreas Fault.
4) Continent-continent collisions buckle and uplift massive mountain ranges, as when India collided with Asia to form the Himalayas.Relative and absolute_dating

The document discusses the four main layers that make up the Earth - the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. It describes each layer in detail, including their composition and physical properties. The mantle is divided into sections including the asthenosphere, which is a soft, plastic-like layer that causes plate tectonics by pushing the plates across its surface through convection currents within the Earth.Types of weathering
Types of weatheringSabeh Khan
油
There are two main types of weathering: mechanical/physical weathering and chemical weathering. Mechanical/physical weathering includes exfoliation, ice wedging, organic wedging, and abrasion which break rocks into smaller pieces through forces like heat, freezing water, plant and animal activity, and rocks rubbing together. Chemical weathering involves processes like hydrolysis, oxidation, dissolution, and reactions with acids that cause rocks to decompose and break down on an atomic scale when in contact with water and acids from sources like carbon dioxide, pollution, and decaying plants.Exogenic Processes
Exogenic Processes Sofia Castillo
油
Exogenic processes refer to activities that occur on Earth's surface, including weathering, soil formation, and erosion. Weathering breaks down rocks through mechanical or chemical means, reducing their size and preparing materials for transport. Mechanical weathering breaks rocks down physically by forces like wind, water, and gravity, while chemical weathering involves reactions with substances like water, carbon dioxide, and oxygen that alter the rocks' composition. Erosion then transports weathered materials from one place to another using natural elements such as moving water, wind, gravity, and animals. Over time, this leads to the formation of soil in areas with suitable conditions.GEOLOGIC PROCESSES ON EARTH

Exogenous processes involve the breakdown and movement of earth's surface materials by external forces like weathering, erosion, and mass wasting. Weathering breaks down rocks through physical and chemical processes. Erosion wears away earth's surface by wind, water, or ice. Mass wasting involves large masses of materials moving down slopes due to gravity, such as debris flows, mudflows, and slumps. Sedimentation is the accumulation of eroded materials. Endogenous processes occur inside Earth and involve magmatism, volcanism, and metamorphism which change the composition of rocks.SHS Earth and Life Quarter 1 Module 4.pdf

This document discusses the three main types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. It provides details on their formation processes. Igneous rocks form from cooling magma, either underground (intrusive) or above ground (extrusive). Sedimentary rocks form through the compaction and cementation of sediments. Metamorphic rocks form from changes to existing rocks through heat and pressure in the crust. The rock cycle model describes how rocks continuously change between these three types through geological processes over millions of years.Chapter 3 : Perpetuation of Life

The document discusses plant reproduction and genetics. It begins by explaining that flowering plants produce sex cells or gametes in the form of ovules and pollen grains within reproductive parts of the plant like the flower. The male reproductive organ is the stamen, which produces pollen containing sperm cells. The female reproductive organ is the pistil, where ovules are produced. Plants can reproduce sexually through cross-fertilization with other plants or self-fertilization. They can also reproduce asexually through various vegetative propagation methods like budding, cutting, grafting, and tissue culture. The document then discusses genetics, explaining what genes and DNA are and their roles in determining traits. It describes DNA structure and how DNA replicatesEarthquake epicenter

This document discusses tectonic plates and transform plate boundaries. It notes that tectonic plates are large pieces of rock that make up Earth's crust, and there are two main types - oceanic and continental plates. At transform boundaries, the plates move horizontally past one another, driven by convection currents in the underlying mantle. When the plates rub together at these boundaries, it causes huge stress that results in earthquakes, faults, and tsunamis.TYPES OF PLATE BOUNDARIES

- Alfred Wegener developed the hypothesis of continental drift in 1910, proposing that the continents were once joined together in a supercontinent called Pangaea before drifting apart. This idea is known as continental drift.
- Wegener provided evidence from matching fossil distributions, rock formations, and past climate patterns between continents now separated by oceans that supported his hypothesis of continental movement over time.
- However, Wegener's hypothesis was rejected by most geologists in the early 1900s due to lack of mechanisms to explain continental motion and discrepancies with existing geological theories. It was not widely accepted until new evidence emerged in the 1950s.Logical fallacy examples

The study tested 36 students learning English who were divided into four groups receiving different types of instruction on relative clauses. The groups focused on subject, direct object, object of preposition, and received no instruction. Post-tests showed students learned the types taught best and generalized learning to less marked structures, supporting the markedness differential hypothesis that more marked structures are harder to learn. The study provides evidence that universal grammar can influence adult second language acquisition, at least for relative clause formation.Generalization and specialization
