Question

This is due in 20 mins, I need evidence! The paragraph is down below, and the question is in the photo!!

There is no doubt that many of our qualities are passed down through our genes. Facial features, hair color, and height are genetically passed from biological parents to their offspring. Do you have dimples? What about freckles? Are you nearsighted? Is your hair curly? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you can thank your biological parents for the genes they passed on to you.

Answer 1

Answer: To engage the reader

Explanation: Authors use things like rhetorical questions like that to engage the reader. They wouldn't say, "If your hair is curly, you have dimples, or nearsightedness, those are genes your parents passed on to you." They would use questions to make you comprehend what you are reading and to engage you in the text. Hope this helps :)
