Read this excerpt from an argumentative essay:
One explanation for why the national parks are so important is that they provide many
Americans with the opportunity to experience wildlife in its natural habitat. Every major city
in the United States has a zoo, which is great, but how much more significant is the sight of
a brown bear in its natural setting rather than in a cage? A trip to a park like Yellowstone
National Park may be the only chance a youngster from a place like New York City or
Chicago will have to behold such a sight. If we, the American people, were to lose places like
Yellowstone, it would be a travesty.
Where in an argumentative essay does this excerpt belong?

In the body, as a reason
b.
In the closing
c.
In the body, addressing a counterclaim
d.
In the opening
