Question

Which of the following best defines "Slippery Slope"?

person tries to exercise power of authority in an effort to give trustworthiness rather than focus on the argument topic

a person assumes two events that happened consecutively caused the other to happen

a person states that a minor movement will produce great and ridiculous conclusions

speaker assumes the statement to be true and is using the question to support itself and implies that the conclusion lacks support

Answer 1

The third is correct. Any movement can spell a disaster. For example, this is often used in debates over gun control/regulation where any talk of even small regulation could lead to the end of all gun rights for everyone.
