1 answer

A) sentence 4 is an example of a red herring.

A red herring is a distraction that seems relevant to the topic at hand but actually takes away from the main argument. In this case, while sentence 4 discusses the energy-depleting sugars in breakfast foods, it diverts attention from the benefits of being an early riser, which is the main focus of the paragraph.
