Respuesta :

Answer:

Letter c is correct.  Problem-cause-solution.

Explanation:

I. Childhood obesity is a serious health crisis in the United States. PROBLEM

Il. Childhood obesity is caused by a range of factors from poor nutrition to lack of exercise. CAUSE

Ill. Childhood obesity can be reduced by action from parents, schools, and the fast-food industry. SOLUTION

The pattern of organizing persuasive discourse based on the problem-cause-solution pattern is beneficial for expressing ideas through critical, argumentative, and evaluative thinking.

Generally this pattern is used in scientific studies, presentations, speeches, case studies and others. By first presenting the problem and then discussing the causes and finally bringing a solution, it makes the speech much more acceptable and reliable, due to the analytical demonstration and exposure of the facts that lead to the problem, and the solution proposal emerges as a final factor that adds to the discourse as a whole and meets the needs of readers or listeners.
