Question

read the passage. dear science, my identical twins go to different schools. lena gets sick quite often, while nell remains healthy. what might be causing lena to become ill so often? how might an author develop their response to this question? a. they might focus on hygiene and discuss germs lena encounters. b. they might launch into a detailed history of infectious disease. c. they might suggest the mother follow lena around school. d. none of the above.

Explanation:

The question is about the reason for Lena getting sick often. Focusing on hygiene and germs she encounters directly addresses the possible cause. A detailed history of infectious disease is too broad and not specific to Lena's situation. Suggesting the mother follow Lena around school is an odd - and likely unhelpful - solution.

Answer:

A. They might focus on hygiene and discuss germs Lena encounters.
