question: what does the conclusion do? select all that are correct.
□ restates the thesis statement/claim/argument

Explanation:

A conclusion in an essay serves to reinforce the core argument, recap key supporting points, and provide a satisfying, reflective close. It should not introduce new, unaddressed information as that would leave the argument unresolved.

Answer:

• Restates the thesis statement/claim/argument
• Summarizes the three main reasons/points from the body paragraphs
• Wraps up the essay and leaves the reader with an interesting thought
