Answer:
C. Disagrees with a position.
Explanation:
In an argument, a counterclaim is an argument that the other party makes to rebut the claims made by the first party. This means that the rebuttal claim made against the original claim is what is known as the counterclaim.
A counterclaim can be of different forms, or different types, depending on the issue at hand. It can be about a case of fraudulent accusation or any point of disagreement between different parties. And the main reason for a counterclaim is to make a counter-argument, a rebuttal for all the claims made by the original or first claimant. Therefore, <u>the main purpose of a counterclaim is to disagree with the claims made.</u>
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
