    Option A

    Explanation:

    Complete question -

    If the trade in tiger products is banned, tiger reserves are guarded by well equipped staff, communities abutting tiger habitat are given a stake in protecting tigers, and the makers of traditional medicines can be persuaded that tiger parts are not needed, then tiger poaching will be halted, habitat and life sustaining prey will be restored, and the immanent extinction of tigers in the wild will be averted. Is this a nonargument or argument?

    Solution -

    An argument consists of connecting pieces of information that are well backed and supported by facts thereby leading to a validated conclusion.

    In this passage, the terms and conditions resulting to halting of tiger poaching are based on an assumption or supposition. An argument has two essential cases a) A claim with true premises and b) True premises supporting the claim.

    This passage represents flawed arguments and hence it must be categorized as non-argument

    Hence, option A is correct
