What is the primary purpose of the conclusion in an essay?

To present opposing viewpoints
To suggest solutions
To offer a conclusion
To introduce the topic

The correct answer is: To offer a conclusion

The primary purpose of the conclusion in an essay is to wrap up the main points and arguments of the essay and present a final statement or opinion on the topic. Option A is incorrect because presenting opposing viewpoints is typically done in the body of the essay. Option B is also incorrect because suggesting solutions is a possible component of the conclusion, but it is not the primary purpose. Option D is incorrect because introducing the topic is typically done in the introduction, not the conclusion. So, option C is the best answer as it accurately describes the main purpose of the conclusion.
