passage content is present but illegible in the image

the organization for the second paragraph can best be described as
select one:
○ a. cause and effect
○ b. narration
○ c. exemplification
○ d. none of the above

Explanation:

The second paragraph of Emerson's text introduces the claim that nature's elements are "universal" and then provides specific examples (like how a wave, a leaf, and a landscape reflect universal order, plus references to childhood, botany, and astronomy) to illustrate and support this central idea. This structure matches exemplification, where a general concept is explained through concrete instances.

Answer:

c. Exemplification
