Answer:

an informal definition
Explanation:
The definition used about corns is an informal one because the author did not make use of any kind of statistic to show that corns are vulnerable to certain kinds of worms and also did not mention the names of worms the corn is vulnerable to.

The correct answer is <u>C</u>: the fact that this is the first day Ryan has ever been turkey hunting.
Explanation:
At the beginning of the excerpt, the author mentions that this is the first day Ryan has ever been turkey hunting. After describing the setting (when he got up, where they went, what they did, etc.), the author mentions again the fact that Ryan has never been turkey hunting and says this is his first time. Therefore, it should be removed from the second part of the excerpt.

The correct answer is B. Cats are normally calm and resigned.
Explanation:
The paragraph presented compares cats and dogs by first presenting a general aspect about both followed by one characteristic of dogs "Dogs are loving and playful", then one characteristic of cats "Cats are clean and self-sufficient" and another characteristic of dogs " Dogs are sometimes hyper" before moving to the common aspects of both.
This shows the author of this paragraph is comparing and contrasting cats and dogs by explaining first the features of each type of pet. Additionally, in this section, the author has provided 2 aspects related to dogs and just 1 related to cats. Because of this, to make the paragraph complete and in balance, another aspect related to cats need to be added and therefore, the sentence that would create an effective paragraph is "Cats are normally calm and resigned".
