The correct answer is: B. Worry about political climate

Explanation:

One of the biggest reasons why Darwin waited 20 years to publish his theory  On the origin of Species was because of the religious implications it carried. It is known that in the time of 19th century, Victorian period in England, religion and the Church played great role in the politics and in the life of society. Therefore, the scientist was afraid of the reaction of people on his brave words that there is no sharp line between a human being and "lower animal". Darwin knew that publishing his work would provoke a very controversial issue, and he was right.

THE VALUE OF BEING CONFUSED PART A: Which statement best expresses the central ideas of the text?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

B. Confusion is more important to intellectual growth than it is to understanding your identity.

Explanation:

Confusion is a state in which human brain could not chronologically reconcile an information or expression. It is a required stage of learning because it motivates or builds the mind to decipher the appropriate way to solve a problem. Though it may lead to frustration sometimes, but it enables the development of a capacity for deeper level of  understanding.

From 'The value of being confused', the central idea or theme is that confusion deals with the development of our intellect (knowledge and understanding), more than personal identity.
