original paragraph-
Have you ever seen a vulture before? Well even if you haven’t you have most likely seen an image of the bald creature. These birds feed of dead animal’s carcasses, making them ‘’a necessary and positive part of nature,’’ says M.E White, author of ‘’Vultures make life difficult’’.
These birds have inflicted damage on neighborhoods by, destroying car’s paint, nib
bling the wheels, and chewing the caulking on the windows. Putting a stop to their
detriment to peoples properties is crucial. Putting up deterrents and even contacting the U.S Wildlife Service are options to help stop these vultures from causing
more damage to our homes.

Create one post that answers the following prompt.

How will you generate ideas for a topic? What resources and tools can you use?

And then I went to Atlanta, and it was a horror to me. And I said to myself, My God, I am Josephine, and if they do this to me, what do they do to the other people in America? You know, friends, that I do not lie to you when I tell you I have walked into the palaces of kings and queens and into the houses of presidents. And much more. But I could not walk into a hotel in America and get a cup of coffee, and that made me mad. And when I get mad, you know that I open my big mouth. And then look out, ‘cause when Josephine opens her mouth, they hear it all over the world.

Read this passage about seals and sea lions and then answer the question that follows:

From a distance, they both look like seals, but once you get up close you can actually see the difference. Seals and sea lions are both fish-loving mammals. Moreover, handy flippers propel them both through the water. But while seals have a tiny opening on the side of their heads, sea lions have actual earflaps. Furthermore, sea lions use their back flippers like feet to scoot along the beach. On the other hand, seals must wriggle and roll to get ahead. On the whole, when you visit a zoo or theme park, it's the honking, barking, funny sea lion you're likely to find playing to the crowds for fishy treats, earflaps and all.

In the passage about seals and sea lions, which transition is used to add an idea?

A. However
B. Moreover
C. On the whole
