Answer 2

The answer is III: a question.

A thesis statement is a statement, usually located at the middle or end of the first or introductory paragraph of an essay or research paper. It is a condensed summary of the main claim, controlling idea, and topic that the text addresses. Through support, evidence, and arguments, the rest of the paper is dedicated to elaborate upon the thesis statement.
