Answer 2

The correct answer is C. In my opinion

Explanation:

The main characteristic of subjective writing is that it conveys the perspective of the writer, rather than only reporting facts. This personal perspective or ideas can be identified through the use of the pronoun "I" or related pronouns as it occurs in the phrases "I think", "in my opinion" or "from my point of view".

This occurs in the excerpt presented because the author uses "in my opinion" to reveal his/her perspective about business as an academic major or discipline. According to this, it is "in my opinion" the words that show this is part of subjective writing because this phrase is only used if the writer wants to include personal perspectives, which is the main feature of subjective writing.
