Nutrias are causing major problems in Louisiana. Someone brought the rodents to the state 40 years ago, hoping to make a fortune

from the furs. Nobody wanted to buy the furs, and now the animals roam freely. They're destroying the wetlands. They eat the roots of the water plants along the canals. The plants die, and the banks of the canals begin to erode. The animals are costing the state millions of dollars, and no one seems to know what to do with them. What sentence from the passage best describes the central idea?

Answer:

Nutrias are causing major problems in Louisiana.

Explanation:

Central Idea = the main idea of a text; kind of like a thesis in an essay

This sentence is the central idea because all of the other sentences support it. The other sentences in the paragraph explain and give examples as to why Nutrias are a problem in Louisiana. Therefore, the first sentence best describes the central idea of the passage.

adoni [48]

Answer: If you're asking which might be easier to write about I would say exposure because it uses more advanced words which make it sound nicer to write about and it also is a little easier to understand what it is talking about which should help you with writing on it. I personally prefer Exposure but it's your choice.
