Answer:
The description of Ignatius' head contributes to the narrator's presentation that Ignatius looks unpleasant.
Explanation:
Ignatius is a very peculiar man and he causes people to be strange, because of the way he dresses, how he acts, his behavior and even his appearance, which is neither pleasant nor admirable.

The first one.
Explanation:
In this first one, the author is pulling apart what the evidence means (analysing it).
In the 2nd, it is NOT analyzing a piece of evidence specifically, it's summarizes the point and says it's supported by the evidence. So, not analyzing.
In the 3rd, the author is applying it to the situation and explaining why it's important, which is different from analysis.
In the 4th, the author is offering an example as evidence, not analyzing a piece of evidence.
