What type of essay is best suited for addressing a controversial issue?

Argumentative
Analytical
Persuasive
Expository

The correct answer is: Argumentative

An argumentative essay is the best choice for addressing a controversial issue because it allows the writer to present a strong argument with supporting evidence and counterarguments. This type of essay is focused on persuading the reader to agree with the writer's viewpoint and actively engage with the topic. An analytical essay would be more suitable for analyzing and interpreting a topic, while a persuasive essay is more focused on convincing the reader to take action. An expository essay would simply present information without taking a stance on the issue. Therefore, A is the most appropriate response.
