which sentence from the article would be most important to include in a summary of the article?
a she compared it to humans living in an apartment block.
b word spread quickly online, thanks to striking images of the giant 1,500 - spider - host web.
c this means the spiders have plenty to eat, so they dont need to fight for food or space.
d do these cambridgeshire spiders show evolutionary biology and genetics?

Explanation:

To determine the most important sentence for a summary, we analyze each option:

• Option A: A comparison to humans hiding in an apartment block is likely a minor illustrative detail, not central to the article's main point.
• Option B: Information about word spreading online and picking images is about the article's online reception, not the core content of the article's subject (likely about spiders or a related topic).
• Option C: This sentence explains a key aspect of the spiders' behavior (removing prey priority, not fighting over food/space), which is likely central to the article's discussion of the spiders' characteristics or behavior.
• Option D: A question about connections to arachnid taxonomy/genetics is a query, not a statement of key information from the article.

So, Option C provides important information about the spiders' behavior, which is crucial for summarizing the article's content.

Answer:

C. This removes the spiders’ given priority to eat, so they don’t need to fight over food or space.
