Explanation:

An expository essay is an essay that is meant to educate and inform the audience on a particular topic. A clear thesis is stated at the first paragraph of the text and the writer expounds further on this idea in the first body of the text. Logical evidence is provided in the body to support the main idea being projected by the writer. The conclusion also draws attention to the first thesis providing conclusive support for it.

The text above is an expository essay because it projects the thesis that coconut is an unusual food for so many reasons and goes on to provide support for the idea.
