Answer: an appeal to emotions

Ingrid · Answer 2

The correct option is "an appeal of emotions". The word "pathos" is used to describe somebody or something that evokes feelings of sadness or compassion. It is commonly used in a literary work as a communication technique that arouses the audience's emotions, especially pity.

Even though the rest of the options also describe communication techniques in narrative art, the term "pathos" specifically refers to emotions.
