A
A paradox that arises when trying to define a vague concept by a series of small steps.
💡 Explanation:

The Sorites Paradox is a paradox that arises when trying to define a vague concept by a series of small steps. The paradox is that, if we start with a clearly true statement and then make a series of small changes, we can eventually reach a statement that is clearly false. This raises the question of where the line is between true and false.
