Clarity in writing refers to the clear expression and connection of ideas.  

Explanation:

Clarity in writing may be answered by asking yourself the following questions,  

-Does each argument support the thesis?  

-Does the paper have a good narrative flow?  

-Is each argument properly fleshed out and backed up with research or external sources?  

-What can be removed or written in a clearer, simpler way?  

Editing your writing is a must. Editing your paper after you write is recommended in two separate stages...  

Content edit is stage one.  

Here, you’re looking at your paper as a whole and asking yourself the most important questions.  

Essentially, this stage is all about making sure the paper communicates your message to the reader as effectively as possible.  

It’s not about spelling errors.  Those you should save for stage two – the technical edit.  

At this point, you’re ready to go over your paper with an attention to detail approach to identify any problems with the structure or syntax.  

Things like: - Spelling and grammar mistakes - Poorly structured sentences  

- Formatting errors - Sentences that just don’t sound right.

halibut, flounder, tuna, and trout are all fish. so your first answer is 1.) fish. and since fish is edible, your next answer would be 3). edible

to describe those fishes more thoroughly, some of those fishes live in fresh water, and some of the fishes live in salt water, and that is not a thing that they all have in common. the question is asking what is common with all of the fish, so answer choices 2). fresh water and 4). salt water are not right.
