Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney. The question before us is, whether the class of persons described in the plea in abatement compose a portion of this people, and are constituent members of this sovereignty? We think they are not, and that they are not included, and were not intended to be included, under the word "citizens" in the Constitution, and can therefore claim none of the rights and privileges which that instrument provides for and secures to citizens of the United States. On the contrary, they were at that time considered as a subordinate and inferior class of beings, who had been subjugated by the dominant race, and, whether emancipated or not, yet remained subject to their authority, and had no rights or privileges but such as those who held the power and the Government might choose to grant them. Which statement best describes the fallacy in this passage? Justice Taney assumes that the writers of the Constitution would agree with him about citizenship. Justice Taney uses the argument that African Americans are not citizens to prove that they are not citizens. Justice Taney assumes that the other justices on the court would agree with him about citizenship. Justice Taney uses the argument that Dred Scott is an enslaved person to prove that he is not a citizen.

option B:  Justice Taney uses the argument that African Americans are not citizens to prove that they are not citizens

Explanation:

The fallacy or error in the passage is that Justice Taney had the opinion that the people described in the plea of abatement do not form part or constitute members of this sovereignty. He believed that they are not included and were not intended to be included under the word "citizens" mentioned in the constitution and thereby unable to lay claim to any right and privilege provided in the constitution.

Meanwhile, they were only considered as a subordinate and inferior beings subdued and overpowered by the dominant race and not that they are not citizens at that time.

The people described in the plea of abatement are citizens and can claim rights and privileges provided in the constitution though not as those who held the power because these people were subdued and overpowered at that time by the dominant race.

A.

Justice Taney assumes that the writers of the Constitution would agree with him about citizenship.

Just took it

many were disgusted, nauseated and shook their heads with disapproval upon finding out about the recycling of water process. however, they do not seem to understand that this process actually saves water.

although individuals may argue that it is unhealthy, and or unsafe to drink water that is "from toilet to tap" , the water is 100% safe to drink and involves forcing the water across a membrane, which "removes   any impurities, including viruses, pharmaceuticals and dissolved minerals" , according to paul rozin, a psychology professor who studies revulsion.

i agree that that the thought of drinking water that once ran through someones kitchen sink isn't quite appealing, but recycled wastewater is safe to drink. it also saves water. "the city produces nine million gallons a day" claims russell schreiber, the city’s director of public works.

recycled waste water has absolutely no health concerns whatsoever. when wastewater goes into a system, it's absorbed back into the ground. thus, it goes into a sewer system, then goes through a treatment process that removes contaminants before being released. nonetheless, there is no problem in drinking water that has been recycled.

"in drought-ed california, there are six state agencies that use wastewater that comes from an intellectual property source," according to the university of california, riverside. studies show that this water is completely safe to drink, however, it still doesn't mean people are going to happily pour it in a water glass.

researchers hope it "may make consumers more amenable to drinking recycled wastewater," extraordinarily, women who have a higher "disgust reaction" and make most consumer purchasing decisions.

yea and yea x.x i love them =^-^=
