Explanation:

According to the excerpt from Tell Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe, the narrator talks about how his senses were sharpened and not dulled as most people would imagine. He considered taking the old man's life, not because of some personal slight or to take his property, but because he wanted to end the man's life and rid himself of the pale blue eyes.

The author effectively builds suspense in this passage by describing the old man's eyes as pale blue

halibut, flounder, tuna, and trout are all fish. so your first answer is 1.) fish. and since fish is edible, your next answer would be 3). edible

to describe those fishes more thoroughly, some of those fishes live in fresh water, and some of the fishes live in salt water, and that is not a thing that they all have in common. the question is asking what is common with all of the fish, so answer choices 2). fresh water and 4). salt water are not right.
