Correct answer: B. Fallacy of Divisionविग्रह तर्कदोष (Fallacy of Division)
Explanation
'Have almost disappeared' is true of Ambassador cars taken collectively as a class, not of any single car. Transferring a property of the whole class to each individual member is the fallacy of division.'लगभग लुप्त हो चुकी हैं' अम्बैसेडर कारों पर एक वर्ग के रूप में सामूहिक रूप से लागू होता है, किसी एक कार पर नहीं। पूरे वर्ग का गुण उसके प्रत्येक सदस्य पर आरोपित करना विग्रह तर्कदोष (Fallacy of Division) है।More Logical Reasoning questions
