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?

What is the difference between the two kinds of optimists discussed in paragraphs 9-11? Based on the essay, which kind of optimi
Step2247 [10]

This question is about the article "Choosing a Warning Label for Human DNA"

Answer and Explanation:

The author presents two types of optimists regarding how other planets and other species would receive samples that would promote the existence of human beings on these planets.

One of the optimists says that it would be necessary to inform the "extraterrestrials" that they received our species, that we are highly dangerous, invasive and that we have a strong potential for destruction. This optimist believes that this would place us as great warriors and necessary beings when problems arise.

However, another type of optimist, prefers to show our sense of community, our delicacy, sentimentality and kindness. Showing our hosts that we are complex beings, but capable of loving and being loved.

In view of this reading, we can see that the author fits into the second group of optimists, because he stimulated our most intimate nature, showing that if it is stimulated, it can overcome our negative points.
