Answer:

B. citing scientific evidence

Explanation:

In the essay "On the Mode of Communication of Cholera," the primary technique that author John Snow uses to support his claim that cholera spreads from person to person is "citing scientific evidence".

Snow scientifically revealed how cholera is transmitted through the medium of polluted water, its propagation by morbid poison that enters the alimentary canal and its communication in crowded areas were poor people reside.

Snow showed that cholera specifically showed how the disease spread by water contaminated by faeces.

John Snow was an English Physician and also led in the development of medical hygiene.

Which examples best support the point-by-point topic sentence? Check all that apply. Though both books are concerned with histor
snow_tiger [21]

The topic sentence sets the focus<u> on the way the ideas are organized</u> in these two works: <em>The Code Book</em> and <em>The Dark Games. </em>Therefore, the examples that best support this point-by -point topic sentence are:

-<em>The Dark Game presents information like a story, naturally and in chronological order</em>. By comparison with the scientific style in <em>The Code</em> <em>Book</em>, <em>The Dark Game'</em>s  style is like fiction. There is a <u>chronological organization.</u>

-<em>The Code Book presents information logically, organized around central ideas.</em> The Code Book's <u>logical organization</u> is the focus in this statement.

The following statements do not exemplify the topic sentence:

- The Code Book relies on scientific terms to explain the topic. The focus is on vocabulary not on the organization of ideas.

-Paul Janeczko uses a conversational tone to engage the reader. The focus is on the writer's style and purpose.

-Simon Singh uses formal language to inform the reader. The focus is on the writer's style and purpose.

-The Dark Game uses vivid descriptions to explain people and places. The focus is on one of the writer's literary tools: descriptions.
