A claim is a statement in which you voice your opinion on a topic. For example, saying that the book we read in class had 398 pages would not be a claim, but saying the book we read in class was boring and a waste of time would be.
Answer:
The correct answer is B. The Metamorphosis.
Explanation:
Magical realism, as the name itself suggests, is a type of predominantly realistic writing that contains some supernatural, or <em>magical </em>elements as well. Even though it <em>mostly </em>refers to Latin American literature, there are many examples of magical realism in European literature as well, such as Bulgakov's <em>The Master and Margarita </em>or Kafka's <em>The Metamorphosis. </em>
In <em>The Metamorphosis, </em>the protagonist Gregor suddenly turns into a cockroach, which is obviously magical. The realism is the fact that his transformation is a symbol of his routine, unhappy life.

It can’t be option C because the author have no where made a comparison or distinction between the parts of ecosystem. It also cannot be option A because no solution have been provided. Even option D is not possible because the passage do not list the causes much.
The correct answer would be C) It refutes the counterclaim ineffectively because it offers opinions and uses a disrespectful tone.
In the excerpt, they did not once use any type of researched evidence. Also, by calling anyone who believes that 'clueless', they are being disrespectful to those who believe the claim that they are trying to refute.
