B) No fallacy.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no fallacy in these sentences. There is no slippery slope since the comparison doesn't include any prediction for the consequences. There also no authority mentioned in the question. The analogy is not weak since Gabriella's hair virtually identical to Francesca's. It's hard to prove that something false cause just from one occurrence, you can assume it's not since there is no further information.
