The answer is C: A teacher assigns a 10 page research project and says, "this might take a little time".

An understatement is a statement that underplays the significance, value, size, relevance or importance of something and it makes it seem considerable less than what it actually is. In this example, the teacher makes it seem like writing a 10 page essay will take just “a little time”, when in fact, any student knows that a 10 page essay in a considerable enterprise that will take a lot more than just a little time.

(1) Red-eyed tree frogs are brightly colored frogs that live in the rainforest. (2) They get their name from their large, bright
Lorico [155]

Answer: C) Poison dart frogs are brightly colored and poisonous to animals that eat them.

A is not the answer because that line explains where frogs get their names from, and introduces the topic of bright colors talking about the frog's bright eyes. B links the topic of bright colors to the fact that they serve as a warning sign for poison or danger, and D supports this topic by stating that bright colors help red-eyed tree frogs survive in nature. C, on the other hand, introduces a new species of frog that is not talked about during the rest of the essay, and it does not support the idea of colors being crucial in the red-eyed tree frog's surivival.
