Question 17333 – NTA UGC NET Dec 2023 Paper-1

Which fallacy is committed in the following argument?
“The universe must be spherical in form because all its constituent parts are spherical in form”?

Correct Answer: D

Question 43 Explanation: 
The argument assumes that because all the constituent parts of the universe are spherical, the entire universe must be spherical. This is a fallacy of composition, as it incorrectly infers that a property of the parts must apply to the whole. In this case, just because individual parts are spherical, it doesn’t necessarily follow that the entire universe is spherical.
A
Circular argument
B
Red herring
C
Slippery slope
D
Fallacy of composition
