Question

1. which of the following shows bias in the article?

\these snakes are an invasive species, which means they are not native.\
\they are decimating native species with their voracious appetites.\
\a female python can lay between 50 and 100 eggs.\
\the project costs about $4,000 per robot.\

Explanation:

To determine bias, we look for subjective or emotionally charged language. The first option is a definition (neutral). The third and fourth are factual statements (neutral). The second option uses "decimating" and "voracious appetites" which are loaded terms, implying a negative judgment (bias) about the snakes' impact.

Answer:

B. "They are decimating native species with their voracious appetites."
