The correct answer is A. Bees are evil creatures

Step-by-step explanation:

An opinion refers to a personal judgment or belief based on own perspectives and experiences rather than on facts. Because of this, opinions usually do not reflect facts or aspects that can be proved but are personal judgments and therefore include subjective words such as "good", "bad", "I" or similar words that express a biased or personal view and therefore are not verifiable. Considering this, from the options provided the one that is an opinion is "Bees are evil creatures", considering this sentence does not express a fact that can be verifiable and also has words such as "evil", which is a biased word that expresses a personal view rather than objective one.
