Step-by-step explanation:
Fallacies are described as the flaw in the reasoning of an argument that makes it invalid or sound.
In the given passage, the author emotionally manipulates the audience to gain acceptance from them instead of logically persuading them. The statements like 'All Americans realize...If Congress fails to address this today, then we all lose' makes the audience feel guilty while going against the legislation. The author develops a false dilemma that misleads the readers regarding 'legislation being the only way to safeguard the environment.' The bandwagon fallacy is displayed when the author makes an assumption that 'every American wish to help endangered species' on the basis of the majority which may not be valid all the time. Thus, options A, B, and D are the correct answers.
