Which statement best describes the function of a body paragraph in a rhetorical analysis essay?

A body paragraph in a rhetorical analysis focuses on a specific rhetorical strategy the author uses, supports the discussion with an example, and explains how that choice helps achieve the author’s purpose or supports the essay’s thesis. Choice B describes this work. A summary of the essay’s claims, as in C, does not analyze how the rhetoric works.
