A
ad hominem
B
Emotional Appeal
C
Circular Reasoning
D
logical appeal
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The senator was told that if she did not support the tax reformation bill, her chances of being re-elected next fall would be very low: This statement is an appeal to force fallacy because it argues that the senator must act in a certain way or risk reelection.

Detailed explanation-2: -They argue that all their high school friends are doing it because some celebrity just got this new tattoo. Now, whatever your feelings about tattoos, this is a logical fallacy. Just because everyone’s getting this tattoo doesn’t mean it’s the right choice for your kid.

Detailed explanation-3: -The bandwagon fallacy is also sometimes called the appeal to common belief or appeal to the masses because it’s all about getting people to do or think something because “everyone else is doing it” or “everything else thinks this.” Example: Everyone is going to get the new smart phone when it comes out this weekend.
