Here's a breakdown:
* Conjunction: A logical statement that combines two or more statements using the word "and" (represented by the symbol "∧").
* Conjuncts: The individual statements within a conjunction.
Example:
* "The sun is shining and the birds are singing."
* This conjunction is true only if both statements are true: the sun is shining and the birds are singing.
* If either statement is false (e.g., the sun is not shining), then the entire conjunction is false.
In simpler terms:
Think of a conjunction like a chain. If one link in the chain is broken (one statement is false), the entire chain (the conjunction) breaks.
