Answer
Option C. "The last two doctors I visited were rude, so all doctors must be rude." is a clear example of a non sequitur.A non sequitur is a logical fallacy where the conclusion does not logically follow from the premises. In this case, the fact that the last two doctors were rude does not logically lead to the conclusion that all doctors must be rude. It makes an unwarranted generalization based on a limited sample size.
