An argument claims that because event B occurred immediately after event A, event A must have caused event B. What common logical fallacy does this argument most clearly exhibit?

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

The fallacy 'post hoc, ergo propter hoc' (after this, therefore because of this) incorrectly assumes that simply because one event followed another, the first event must have caused the second. It confuses temporal sequence with causation.
