I believe it could refer to the fact the joy is in fact joyful
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.
Resolution
The resolution of the story is the end. All of the conflicts are solved and subplots are wrapped up. Tension usually builds as the conflict begins and becomes more complicated. The author does this through the sequence of events, language, conflict, sentence structure, tone, and mood. The resolution is not an area of tension in a story. If there is, usually it's so that there can be a sequel.
