A few nonconformists are building dome-style homes because of their stability and energy efficiency. The dome’s shape is especially resistant to storms and earthquakes because the foundation supports all portions of the structure. Other people enjoy traditional four-sided brick homes. The lack of walls in a dome-shaped house allows more equal distribution of heating and cooling, making it more energy efficient. At this point, the writer is considering adding the following sentence: American visionary architect Buckminster Fuller invented the geodesic dome in the middle of the twentieth century. Should the writer make this addition? Yes, because it gives specific examples of a person involved with domes.
Yes, because the paragraph lacks explanation about the dome designs.
No, because the paragraph is about more recent developments in dome structures.
No, because the sentence distracts from the main focus of the paragraph.
