Answer: B) Ants look kind of creepy with their weird eyes.  

Explanation: The tone of a text or sentence is the author's or speaker's attitude towards the audience, the subject or even the characters of the text. There are many different kinds of tones, like: positive, negative, objective, sad, angry, etc. In the given excerpt we can see an example of a formal tone, except on the phrase "Ants look kind of creepy with their weird eyes" which has an informal tone that is inconsistent with the rest of the passage.

B) Ants look creepy with their weird eyes. 
This sentence is out of place because although the rest of the passage is formal and informative, this one is informative and does not offer real fact about the ants.
