Answer:

D) Who

Step-by-step explanation:

Pathos refers to a rhetorical device in which the speaker uses the emotional way in an argument to convince the public. In Act III Scene II of the play "Julius Caesar", Brutus gives a speech in front of the people of Rome. He tries to convince the people that the death of Caesar had saved the people from living the life of a slave. He uses pathos in his speech to convincing the people emotionally.
