I do not understand the question.
Read the excerpt from The Building of Manhattan.

Which statement best explains how an illustration would make this text easier to understand?
It would help the reader visualize the complex parts described in the text.
Hello :)
It would be 3, explaining how hunting is bad for the blue whales.
The first paragraph is showing how drastically their numbers have dropped from being hunted and the second paragraph is showing how more whales have been being sighted recently because of the decrease in hunting. Hopefully the population grows stronger soon.
Have a nice day!
