Answer:

D. Edison’s creativity made him a great inventor.

Explanation:

In essays and other academic writings, a thesis statement consists of one or two sentences that reflect the author's position on the main idea or topic of the essay. The thesis statement that best fits the outline is “Edison's creativity made him a great inventor” because it reflects a stance or personal view on the topic (Edison's inventions), and it is also congruent with the outline, which does not talk about people's opinions about Edison (Option A) or in only one of his creations (Option B and C), instead it talks about how he managed to create and improve two great inventions: the light bulb and the alkaline battery.
