Read the excerpt from neil degrasse tyson’s “death by black hole.”

but there is more bad news.

all parts of your body are moving toward the same spot—the black hole’s center. so while you’re getting ripped apart head to toe, you will also extrude through the fabric of space and time, like toothpaste squeezed through a tube.

to all the words in the english language that describe ways to die (e. g., homicide, suicide, electrocution, suffocation, starvation) we add the term “spaghettification.”

in this excerpt, tyson conveys his complex ideas by

(a)introducing complicated terminology.
(b)providing relevant statistics and figures.
(c)relating the information to something familiar.
(d)describing a personal experience.
