A student in class says, "The Constitution recognizes right to water and healthcare as being a part of Right to Life. Hence, the government must provide such public facilities to everyone". Which of the following types of reasoning is the student using while making this statement?

Option 3 : Cause-effect reasoning

Reasoning can be regarded as an instrument that enables mankind to grasp the ‘unknown’ with the help of the ‘known’. ’ The reasoning is the process of using existing knowledge to draw conclusions, make predictions, or construct explanations.

 Here, A student in class says, "The Constitution recognizes the right to water and healthcare as being a part of Right to Life. Hence, the government must provide such public facilities to everyone".This shows cause-and-effect reasoning.

• Cause-effect reasoning is an important part of verbal reasoning, which asserts or denies that one thing causes another, or that one thing is caused by another.
• Cause is the reason for an event that has occurred and Effects are the outcomes of a cause.
• In this, the student says the cause and effect statement.

Thus, it is concluded that Cause-effect reasoning types of reasoning is the student using while making this statement.

•  Inductive reasoning begins with observations that are specific and limited in scope and proceeds to a generalized conclusion that is likely, but not certain, in light of accumulated evidence.
• Deductive reasoning starts with the assertion of a general rule and proceeds from there to a guaranteed specific conclusion. Deductive reasoning moves from the general rule to the specific application.
• Reductive reasoning:- It is a subset of argumentative reasoning which seeks to demonstrate that a statement is true by showing that a false or absurd result follows from its denial. It is considered as a mixture of deductive and inductive reasoning.
