The transition words
are used to link words, phrases or sentences in order to help the reader to
progress from one idea to the next idea. They also help to build up coherent
relationships within the text. Transition words have been assigned to
artificial categories such as: agreement, opposition, causes, examples, effect,
conclusion etc.
In the first sentence
transition word is “and” (“…bespoke repression and even a certain strength”) which
belongs to the category of agreement transition words (alongside again, then,
also…)
In the second sentence
transition word is “but” (“But now there was a dull stare in her eyes…”) which
belongs to the category of opposition (alongside still, unlike, yet, while…),
whose gaze was fixed away off yonder on one of those patches of blue sky.
<span>In the third sentence is
the transition phrase “but rather” (“…but rather indicated a suspension of
intelligent thought”), in category of opposition.</span>

parallelism to create rhythm
Explanation:
There is no imagery (Words that create a vivid image in your head), onomatopoeia (words that infer sounds [boom, wham, shhhhh etc.] ) or Alliteration (repetition of words that begin with the same letters [peter piper picked a pepper] ) being used or said. We can only infer that it is parallelism to create rhythm
Answer:
A. In fact, elephants place such huge demands on their own environment, that in order to survive, they often come into conflict, with humans, who are competing for the same resources.
Explanation:
I think this is the answer. The sentence before states that elephants devour several hundred pounds of plant matter in a single day, so this is why i would say "in fact". I'm sorry if this is the wrong answer!
