Answer:

The correct option is C) Evaluating the argument and forming a conclusion based on the evidence.

Explanation:

An important step in critical thinking is evaluating the argument being made. The claim put forward by Sarah has no evidence and is a general statement made by Wikipedia. Of course, the emotions of every person present on Earth cannot be surveyed and the claim is made without proper evidence.

Jake's claim is based on evaluation of the argument and lack of evidence by Sarah and hence, it is an element of critical thinking.
