How does the author of “The Journey to Acceptance” show a favorable bias toward Mendel’s research and an unfavorable bias toward
the opinions of Mendel’s scientific peers?AThe author contrasts Mendel’s theories against the theories of the scientists of Mendel’s day.BThe author does not spend equal time explaining the theories of Mendel’s scientific peers.CThe author uses specific diction such as “profound impact” when referencing Mendel’s work and “very small understanding” when expressing the scientists’ beliefs.DThe author shows how the scientists’ blending theory is similar to Mendel’s research and then refers to Mendel’s work as “the laws of Mendelian inheritance”, making it sound important.
The author shows a favorable bias towards Mendel's research and an unfavorable bias towards the opinions of Mendel's scientific peers, by using specific diction such as “deep impact” when referring to Mendel's work and “very little understanding” when expressing the beliefs of scientists, as shown in option C.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Diction is very important for an author to be able to express their thoughts within a text.
In "The Journey to Acceptance," we can see the efficient use of diction when the author states that Mendel's research had a "profound impact" on the scientific community.
With this, the author shows a favorable bias to Mendel's research, stating that it is important and its impact was essential.
On the other hand, the author states that Mendel's peer opinions are not as relevant as they are of “very small understanding.”
With that, he shows a negative bias, claiming that the opinions of Mendel's peers are not as relevant.
It is important to point out that diction refers to the use of specific words to expose a message through a text.
The answer is B) The tone of the letter is too informal and lacks specific details. That is the answer because it uses opinions and lacks support for the claim. Plz give brainliest answer :) :D.
