Explanation:

The excerpt uses examples like frogs (with disrupted mating due to artificial lights leading to reduced populations) and confused sea turtle babies. These are vulnerable animals, and presenting their plight is likely to evoke sympathy in readers. The first option is about facts impressing scientific minds (not an emotional appeal). The second option mentions birds migrating exciting a sense of adventure, but the text also includes frogs and sea - turtle babies, so this is too narrow. The fourth option focuses on birds flying at night and awe at flight power, but again, the text has a broader range of vulnerable animals.

Answer:

The excerpt uses examples of vulnerable animals, such as confused sea turtle babies, to make readers feel sympathetic.
