Question

Keegan Paschal · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Most concepts that people use in thinking are fuzzy and overlap with one another. This is because concepts are mental representations of categories or ideas, and not all members of a category have the exact same characteristics. Therefore, people often use concepts that have fuzzy boundaries and overlap with other related concepts. The other choices are not accurate because concepts can allow for abstract thinking (not just generalization) and can account for critical differences (not just overlap), and they do not necessarily depend on short-term memory.
