Rocks – formed from distinct grains (mineral grains) that come together Tectonic movements – movements of the tectonic plates
Igneous rocks – form by crystallization and composed of several kinds of - Gives rise to mountains, oceans, ridges, troughs, and other land forms
minerals - Distrophism – process results in building up a surface
Sedimentary rocks – composed of usually one kind of material Volcanism – matter is transported to the surface of the earth and then
Minerals – naturally occurring chemical element or compound, possessing erupted
definite crystalline structure - Magmatic materials are effused towards the surface of the earth
- Classified according to chemical composition an atomic structure through volcanic structures
- Make up rocks an silicates crystallize in order to form rocks - Intrusives/plutons – magma doesn’t reach the surface
- Common to denote the element as oxides Plate tectonics – concerned with the movement of the continents

- Starting points in the rock cycle Fold – bend in the rock that is the response to compressive forms
- Found on the earth’s mantle Fault –displacement of a rock that was once connected along a fault line
- 70% of the Earth’s mass and 80% of the Earth’s volume Polarity changes – key indicators of seafloor spreading
- Derived from the convection in the Earth’s mantle Seafloor spreading – volcanic activity gradually moves away from the ridge

Judgment – second act of intellect; pronounces the Logical Opposition
agreement/disagreement bet terms/ideas; act by which intellect - Relation existing between propositions having the same subject and
relates/combines ideas/concepts predicate but different quality/quantity or both

product of the act of judgment we relate 2 propositions with the same subject and predicate
Kinds of Judgment 1. Contradiction – proportions having the same subject and predicate but
1. Affirmative – agreement of identity between two ideas/concepts different quality and quantity; cannot be both true or false at the same
2. Negative – non-identity/disagreement of ideas/concepts time: if one is true, the other is false and vice versa
Proposition – judgment expressed in sentence or a sentence pronouncing 2. Contrariety – proportions having the same subject, predicate and
the agreement or disagreement bet terms; always had truth-value: may be universal extension, but different in quality; cannot be both true but
true/false; cannot be both true and false; must express an assertion/claim may be both false: if one is true, the other is false; if one is false, the
that is meaningful and coherent other may be true/false = doubtful/undetermined
Truth – agreement of the mental judgment in proposition with reality 3. Sub-contrariety – proportions having the same subject, predicate and
Types of Proposition particular extension, but different in quality; cannot be both false, but
1. Categorical – direct judgment/assertion of the may be both true: if one is false, the other one is true; if one is true the
agreement/disagreement of two terms in an absolute manner other may be true/false (doubtful)
2. Hypothetical – does not express direct judgment; relation between two 4. Sub-Alternation – proposition having the same subject, predicate and
judgment in w/c the truth of one depends on the other; always a quality, but different extension/quality

b. Disjunctive – uses “either-or” inference in w/c from a proposition taken as true, another proposition w/c is
c. Conjunctive – uses “and” implied it is derived
Categorical Proposition 1. Obversion – process of eduction in w/c the derived proposition, while
Elements retaining the subject of the original proposition has predicate, and
 Subject – term designating the idea about w/c something is contradictory of the original predicate
affirmed/denied a. Obvertend – original proposition
 Predicate – term designating the idea w/c is affirmed/denied of the b. Obverse – derived proposition
subject c. Process of Obversion
 Copula – expressing the mental act w/c pronounces the i. Retain the subject
agreement/disagreement between the subject and the predicate 1. All – men – are not – immortal
 Quantifier – expresses the application/extension of the proposition 2. Men (subject)
Properties of Categorical Preposition ii. Contradict the predicate (replacing the predicate term of an
1. Quality of Proportion – affects the copula and makes the proposition opposite or contrary meaning)
either affirmative/negative 1. Immortal (predicate) = mortal
a. Affirmative – proposition whose predicate is always affirmed of iii. Negate the copula (changing the quality of the proposition)
its subject according to the whole of its comprehension and part 1. Are not (copula) = are
of its extension iv. Retain the quantity
b. Negative – one whose preposition is always denied of its subject 1. All (quantity)
according to a part of its comprehension and the whole of its v. Final: all men are mortal

2. Quantity of Proportion – number of individuals to whom the the predicate of the original proposition for its subject and the original
preposition applies subject for its predicate
a. Universal – proposition whose subject is a universal term; all, a. Convertend – original proposition
each, every, no, nobody b. Converse – derives proposition
b. Particular – proposition whose subject is a particular term (used c. Process of Conversion
partly and indeterminately); some, many, few, majority, a number i. Interchange the subject and the predicate
of, minority, most 1. All – doctors – are – professionals
c. Singular – proposition whose subject is a singular term 2. Doctors (subject); professionals (predicate)
d. Collective – proposition whose subject is a collective term; applies ii. Retain the quality
to a class or group 1. All (quality)
Types of Categorical Proposition iii. No term may have a greater extension in the converse
A Universal Affirmative All X are Y proposition than in the converted proposition (rule); if the
E Universal Negative No X is Y/all X are not Y term is particular, it must remain a particular; if it is universal,
I Particular Affirmative Some X are Y it may remain a universal/it can be used as a particular
O Particular Negative Some X are not Y/Not 1. All (quantifier) = some

b. Fallacy of Equivocation – happens when one term expresses 2
Syllogisms different meaning in the syllogism; committed when the
Reasoning – third act of intellect; intellect by way of inference, is able to supposition of a term shifts/when an equivocal term is used in the
know a truth based on previously known truth; mental act also known as argument
inference c. Fallacy of Illicit Major Term – committed when major term has a
Inference – process of deriving/deducing another proposition from given wider/greater extension in the conclusion than in the major
propositions premise/when the major term in particular in the major premise
 Immediate inference – inference from one proposition without the use and universal in conclusion
of a third term; logical opposition and equivalence d. Fallacy of Illicit Minor Term – committed when the minor term
o Some models are beautiful [ladies] has a wider/greater extension in the conclusion than in the minor
o Some beautiful ladies are models premise, when the minor term is particular
 Mediate inference – inference based on at least two proportions and it 2. The middle term must be distributed in at least 1 of the premises
employs a third term 3. The middle term must not appear in the conclusion
o All commercial models are highly paid personalities a. Fallacy of Misplaced Middle Term – happens when the middle
o Some commercial models are actresses term appears in the conclusion
o Some actresses are highly paid personalities 4. The middle term must be taken as a universal in the premises at least
Argument – sequence of proportions in w/c from statements taken as true once
another statement is inferred/derived a. Fallacy of the Undistributed Middle Term – happens when the
Premises – first 2 propositions middle term is taken twice as a particular in both premises
Conclusion – proposition that provides the reason for the truth 5. If both premises are affirmative, the conclusion must be affirmative
Kinds of Reasoning a. Fallacy of Negative Conclusion – happens when the conclusion,
1. Deductive Argument – (etym: Deduco – I lead down); process of derived from 2 affirmative premises, is negative
reasoning which proceeds from universal/general laws, 6. No conclusion can be drawn from 2 negative premises
principles/statements to particular instances or propositions; truth of a. Fallacy of 2 Negative Premises – if two terms do not agree w/ the
the premises is intended to guarantee the truth of its conclusion; the same 3rd term, the argument cannot proceed since there will be
conclusion is already implied in the premises = if the premises are true, no common ground between the two terms
the conclusion becomes necessarily true 7. No valid conclusion can be derived from two particular premises
2. Inductive Argument – (etym: Induco – I lead to); process of reasoning a. Fallacy of Double Particular Premises – a syllogism with 2
which proceeds from specific/particular instances to the formulation of particular premises will always violate one/more rules of
general/universal principles or statements; truth of its premises is inference; for a syllogism to be valid, one premise must be
intended to make likely or probably, the truth of its conclusion = true universal
premises do not necessarily guarantee a true conclusion, even if all 8. The conclusion always follows the weaker side
premises are true, the conclusion could be false; appeal to evidence
through sense experience; the strength of the argument depends on a
alllllllllhigher degree of probability
Syllogism – form of deductive argument; standard expression of argument in
Aristotelian logic; basic form of argument wherein it is arranged orderly so as
to show the structure/form of the argument and important terms and
propositions to facilitate logical analysis
 Matter – ideas/terms and judgments/propositions; what the argument
says
 Form – logical connection of the ideas/terms by virtue of which the
conclusion follows necessarily from the given premises
Kinds of Syllogism
 Categorical Syllogism – composed of categorical propositions; first 2
are premises and third is the conclusion; contains 3 terms: major,
minor, and middle term
o All inventors are scientists
o Some inventors are well-known worldwide
o Hence, some people who are well-known worldwide are scientists
 Hypothetical Syllogism – composed of hypothetical propositions; terms
are not identified
o If the suspect is found guilty, then he will serve time in prison
o But he will not serve time in prison
o Ergo, he was found guilty
General Laws Concerning Categorical Argument
1. Dictum de Omni – whatever is affirmed universally, should also be
affirmed of its logical parts
2. Dictum de Nullo – whatever is denied universally, should also be
denied of its logical parts
3. If two concepts agrees respectively with the same third concept, then
they also agree with each other
4. If one concept agrees with a third term and the other disagrees with
the same third term, then they disagree with each other
5. If each two terms disagrees respectively with the same term, then
nothing can follow/concluded
Eight Laws of Categorical Syllogism
1. There must only be 3 terms in the syllogism
a. Fallacy of 4-term construction – committed when there are 4
terms instead of 3 in the syllogism
