PLEASE HELP!!

Which of the following sentences from an argumentative essay addresses a
counterclaim?
O A. According to Ogden's longtime animal control officer, Jack Strop.
there have been "no less then a dozen zoo escapes from Ogden
Park in the last year, the most in the country by far."
O B. Due to low attendance and the danger its deteriorating facilities
present to the surrounding community, the Ogden Park Zoo should
be shut down immediately.
O C. Some in the community are worried about losing this longtime
Ogden institution; in reality, though, attendance has been declining
steadily for years, hitting an all-time low last year.
OD. For these reasons and many more, the Ogden Park Zoo should be
closed at the earliest possible date, and its animals relocated to
more secure facilities.
