the answer is C because, remember, the central idea is another way to say 'the author's main idea/point'. hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

A. the supporting evidence an author cites.

Explanation: You can't give informational text if you have no proof that what you're saying is true. Without evidence you are basically saying sentences and expecting everyone to just believe that what you're saying is the truth. You could say the sky is pink but without citing evidence you are just saying something and expecting people to believe you.
