The quote that is an example of direct characterization is:

A. "The demon was a big, cheerful-looking demon with a bland, round face. He eyed father."

Explanation:

We have direct characterization when we are told by the narrator what the character is or looks like. It is an explicit characterization. For instance, if in the story there are sentences such as "he was nervous" or "she had big brown eyes", the author is using direct characterization.

That is what we have in letter A. The quote uses direct characterization to let readers know what the demon looked like. We are clearly told he was "big" and "cheerful-looking", and he had a "bland, round face".

the support that the author, uses in the article facing our fears is a): a definition of the part of the brain called the amygdala.

he takes neuroscientist joseph ledoux's words by telling that by falling to distinguish between evolutionary old systems located in the amygdala and newer systems, centered in the prefrontal cortex, doctors have conflated non conscious threat circuits in the brain with circuits that underlie the conscious experience of fear. that, the author says, "leads ledoux to the jarring conclusion that the amygdala, a decades-old centerpiece of the brain's fear circuit, does not underlie the conscious feeling of fear".

despite this, the author points out in the article that that is a controversial notion and that evidence, in animal and humans, supports the idea that core emotions can exist outside of conscious awareness.
