Answer:
b) Appeal to ignorance, present in an argument in which the arguer relies on the supposition that, due to a lack of conclusive evidence, the conclusion of an argument should be accepted.
Explanation:
The logical fallacy of appeal to ignorance is when an argument's conclusion is based on the absence of any evidence proving against it. In other words, an appeal to ignorance is when an arguer relies on the supposition that the lack of any evidence proving otherwise makes his conclusion acceptable and right.
In the given case of the existence of aliens, the speaker decides that <em>"[since] no one has yet been able to [prove that aliens exist]", </em>therefore, it must be true and accepted that <em>"aliens do not exist."</em> This argument follows the logical fallacy of an appeal to ignorance.

B. She participates in religious customs in an unconventional way.
Let’s look at the first stanza:
<em />
<em>Some keep the Sabbath going to Church –
</em>
<em>I keep it, staying at Home –
</em>
<em>With a Bobolink for a Chorister –
</em>
<em>And an Orchard, for a Dome –
</em>
The first line of the stanza tells readers how some participate in the Sabbath by doing the traditional thing of going to Church (we can assume on Sunday mornings). However, the poem proceeds by her telling us that she does not go to Church—she stays home as she keeps the Sabbath. In fact, instead of a traditional choir, she has the song of a bird called a Bobolink. And, instead of sitting underneath a Church dome, she sits underneath the trees of an orchard. As such, it can be determined that she, indeed, keeps the Sabbath; however, she does so in her own way which goes against convention.
