We need to make sure we know what each of these words mean before we can decide which answer is best.

Satire is the use of humor, comedy, or exaggeration to criticize people's vices.

Irony is expressing your meaning by using language that is the opposite of what you mean, usually for humorous effect.

Dialect is a particular form of language that is specific to a region or group.

Hyperbole is extreme exaggeration.

With these definitions in mind, we can knock hyperbole off immediately as there is nothing exaggerated about the words we're looking at. Satire doesn't quite fit either because it's not obvious or apparent what is being satirized here. Irony also isn't a good choice because what is ironic isn't immediately obvious. Dialect is your best choice because the last part--"a-comin"--implies someone has dropped the g at the end of coming and makes it sound like a dialect.

Look at the maps. The top map shows carbon dioxide released by wildfires. The bottom map shows how the carbon dioxide would have
Genrish500 [490]

The correct answer is A.

The bottom map provides data that shows that prescribed fires would actually reduce the carbon dioxide, as opposed to wild fires, which would produce it in large quantities.

Therefore, these maps could be used as evidence to support the idea that prescribed fires are benefitial for the environment, rather than harmful.
