Answer:

The answer is "pathos".

Step-by-step explanation:

It is possible to persuade the audience by deliberately evoking certain emotions to make them feel the way the writer wants readers to feel. It is also referred to as the result of a speaker's emotional appeal, the audience feels a certain way. The statement's goal is to evoke a favorable emotional reaction in the audience toward the statement's goal. Evoking feelings is the most effective way to produce pathos.
