While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:
* The magnificent frigatebird (fregata magnificens) is a species of seabird that feeds mainly on fish, tuna, squid, and other small sea animals.
* It is unusual among seabirds in that it doesn't dive into the water for prey.
* One way it acquires food is by using its hook-tipped bill to snatch prey from the surface of the water.
* Another way it acquires food is by taking it from weaker birds by force.
* This behavior is known as kleptoparasitism.
The student wants to emphasize a similarity between the two ways a magnificent frigatebird acquires food. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?

C:
Of the magnificent frigatebird’s two ways of acquiring food, only one is known as kleptoparasitism.
D:
