Choose which reasoning process is shown in the following example Explain your answer An HMO does a follow up study on 1329 randomly selected patients given a flu shot None of these people became seriously ill with the flu The study concludes that all HMO patients be urged to get a flu shot in order to prevent a serious case of the flu B Choose the correct answer below OA It is deductive reasoning because additional information may prove that other patients may not have taken the flu shot and still did not catch a serious case of the flu B It is deductive reasoning because a general conclusion is drawn based on specific observations C It is inductive reasoning because a general conclusion is drawn based on specific observations D It is inductive reasoning because the flu is epidemic If someone does not take the flu shot there is a great possibility for that person to catch a serious case of the flu
