Question

A biologist studying chimpanzees in the wild knows that young chimps have light brown faces and older chimps have dark gray faces. Chimp 1435 has a light brown face, so the biologist reasons that it's a young chimp. Is this induction or deduction.​

Answer 1

Deduction because he deducted that the older chimps have darker faces (brown), and younger chimps have lighter faces (brown), so this means he saw a pattern of light brown faces associating with younger chimps. He got his answer by deducting the information he gathered.
