Counterclaims and rebuttals are typically placed in the body paragraphs, after the main argument has been presented. This allows the writer to acknowledge opposing viewpoints while also providing a response that strengthens their own argument. Therefore, the correct answer is:
**In the body paragraphs, after the main argument has been presented.**
**In the body paragraphs, after the main argument has been presented.**
