Sentence 2 should be removed because it does not support the development of Evelyn's central idea.

The central idea of any passage or text is the central or main message that ties the other elements together within the text. This means that the central idea will be the main topic around which the whole passage or text’s argument is about.

  • In the given condition, Evelyn's research paper focuses on the "significant differences" between alligators and crocodiles.
  • This means that the main points that she may include in the argument would focus on the differences between the two reptiles.
  • All of the sentences point out certain differences between the two reptiles except sentence 2.
  • Sentence 2 talks about their similarity, which is "they live near water".

So, among the given sentences, sentence 2 seems most likely to be the odd one out that does not support the development of her central idea. Thus, the correct answer is option A.
