Answer:
D. By describing the love between Elenita's parents, the author emphasizes its triumph over petty differences, leaving the reader inspired
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from "Gravity" by Judith Ortiz Cofer, Elenita witnesses her parents hug and her dad placing his lips on his wife's tear-streaked in an effort to absorb her pain, once again rekindling their love, thus making Elenita feeling a need to connect with someone of her own.
The statement that best describes the intended aesthetic impact of the passage is that it emphasizes the triumph of love over petty differences.
