F

Explanation

A, E, and F each state a clear main idea that a paragraph could develop: Siamese cats’ temperament, qualities of effective leaders, and dogs’ loyalty as pets. B gives an instruction rather than a paragraph’s main idea, and C is a question. D is phrased as a question because it ends with a question mark, so it does not work as a topic sentence as written.
