Answer:

Elaborate, repetitive and layered answers are meta discourse

Explanation:

Meta-discourse : Discussion about a discussion instead of a compact and concise way of conversing. It is a philosophical method of elaborating a topic so as to create a repetitive explanation.

Example of a meta discourse-

Cats are the best pets. Cats can be friendly and moody. Cats like to eat fishes. Cats are friendly upon giving food. Humans love to get friends with cats. They offer food to the cat.

(The paragraph is repetitive and explains the same lines)

It can be re written in the following manner:

"Cats are friendly pets who love to eat fishes"
