B. The bubonic plague is a dangerous and scary thing
C. Hasty actions can have unexpected consequences
D. Nature will always take care of itself in the end

Answer 1

C). Hasty actions can have unexpected consequences.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Top of the Food Chain" authored by T.C. Boyle employs satire to critique the human folly of overvaluing 'logic and reason'. The author further describes that such actions may lead to disastrous and unanticipated consequences.

As per the question, the central idea(main point) of the story would be that 'hasty actions may lead to unpredictable consequences'. He feels that actions and decisions must be taken thoughtfully and leisurely by considering the vision of the consequences affiliated with a hasty or impulsive decision. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
