Alvarez shows that refusing to obey Trujillo's requests could be dangerous.

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The excerpt from "A genetics of Justice" by Julia Alvarez showed that if she did not obey to the rules and did not listen to what Trujillo said, it would not be good for her. She would not be able to do anything and would not be able to get her cedula stamped.

This could cost her, her dream of leaving the country and going abroad to study for the heart surgery. Because she would not be able to obtain her passport because of which she would not be able to go abroad. So it was very important for her to listen to Trujillo.
