Explanation:

An explanatory thesis is used to explain "why" or "how" something is the case. Let's analyze each option:

• First option: Compares organic and commercial farming and explains why organic is healthier (explains "why"), so it uses an explanatory thesis.
• Second option: Just compares oranges and lemons (no explanation of "why" or "how" beyond description), more of a descriptive comparison.
• Third option: Analyzes music differences and states a preference (expressive, not explanatory).
• Fourth option: Analyzes sock - glove differences and states importance (expressive, not explanatory).

Answer:

A. Compare and contrast organic farming and commercial farming, and explain why organic farming is healthier.
