You're welcome.
Based on the options provided, Option B) "Immigrants are the main cause of crime in Texas" is an example of a biased statement about Texas.
To check the answer, we can evaluate the statement for bias by examining if it presents a one-sided or prejudiced perspective without considering other factors or alternative viewpoints. In this case, the statement unfairly generalizes immigrants as the main cause of crime in Texas without considering other possible factors contributing to crime rates. It is an example of a biased statement because it unfairly targets immigrants without providing a balanced view of the situation.
Therefore, your answer is correct, and Option B) is a biased statement about Texas.
