B. Personification.
Bees cannot “demand” attention because they cannot speak or demand anything, so this sentence is the writer giving the bees a human trait.
We can work through the answers. Option A is not correct because the author does not say that there is plenty of food, he points out that plenty of food can be obtained, however the producers do not make enough money and therefore they just leave it. Option B is not correct because there is no parallelism in the excerpt. The sentences with <em>There is </em>do not have a grammatical relevance with each-other. The option D is not correct because the excerpt shows author's anger stemming from the irresponsibility of people. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
Means of persuasion include:
-Ethos
-Pathos
-Logos
I believe it's B! Participle phrases typically take the sentence and add some sort of modifier. An example of this that I've found is "Removing his pants, Ron jumped into the water to save the child." Another one is "The art museum, destroyed by a hurricane, was never rebuilt." The modifier can be removed from the sentence and it would still make sense.
