An example of an inference that certainly does commit the fallacy of division is this: (1) Water is liquid. Therefore: (2) H2O molecules are liquid. This argument, in attributing a macro-property of water, liquidity, to its constituent parts, commits the fallacy of division.
Flu Incubation Period. The typical flu incubation periodâthe time between exposure and the start of symptomsâis between 24 hours and four days, with the average being two days. This means that if you are exposed to the influenza virus and become infected, you will start to experience flu symptoms anywhere between 24 hours and four days after the exposure.
Influenza's incubation period is 1-4 days with 2 days being the most common for showing symptoms. There are many viruses that cause cold and flu symptoms that are not the common cold or influenza. If you were exposed to one of those it may take up to 7 days before symptoms appear.
