Explain how the answer you chose conveys the text's central idea. Scientists guess that the trap might close using some electrical impulses and pressure changes.

Complete question statement is;

Which sentence from the paragraph best shows the text’s central idea?A“One of the most mysterious things about the Venus flytrap is that scientists still don’t understand how the trap closes.”B“The flytrap does not have the muscles, tendons, or nervous system necessary for movement.”C“Scientists guess that the trap might close using some electrical impulses and pressure changes.”D“It should be no mystery, however, why this unusual plant has captured the imaginations of so many people.”

Explanation:

The missing paragraph is stated below;

One of the most mysterious things about the Venus flytrap is that scientists still don’t understand how the trap closes. The flytrap does not have the muscles, tendons, or nervous system necessary for movement. Scientists guess that the trap might close using some electrical impulses and pressure changes. The longer they study the Venus flytrap, the more likely scientists are to discover how it functions. It should be no mystery, however, why this unusual plant has captured the imaginations of so many people.

Hence reading the above paragraph, we can find that there is no definite answers to the methodology of Venus flytrap trap closing but scientists research lead them to think that it was due to some electrical impulses and pressure changes. Hence option C is correct

i believe it is the first choice (1.)

because the major theme is(“both the wild and civilization have rules.”)

and also as u said,( based on what buck learns within the call of the wild, "both the wild and civilization have rules".this is true of humans within society as well.

i decided to stay late in the laboratory to continue my experiment with the lightbulb. at midnight, thomas edison opened the door and walked in with his head held high.

1. he leaned on the wall and observed me carefully.

2. his harsh scrutiny made me self-conscious of my skills in the lab.

3. perhaps it was just me, but the air in the laboratory began to thicken as i found myself having difficulty to breathe.

4. i turned to look at him fully as i mentally prepared myself for what my very first words would be to thomas edison.

5. the next couple of seconds shocked me. it wasn't me who spoke, but rather him and with diction i could never think of using in a simple sentence.
