Answer:
a. partial change
Explanation:
A persuasive speech can be defined as a type of speech in which the aim or goals of the speaker is to convince the listeners (audience) to accept his or her own point of view, perspective, ideas or opinions. Thus, the main purpose of a persuasive speech is to inform an action in the minds of the potential listeners by accepting all or part of the ideas, views, or perception being expressed by the speaker.
In this scenario, as director of an organization to protect marine resources, Ben regularly advocates establishing a five-year ban on commercial fishing to help restore the population of key fish species to historical levels. Today, Ben is delivering his speech to members of a community where the fishing industry is the primary employer. Thus, Ben should seek to achieve a partial change from the audience through today's speech because the fishing industry is the primary employer of labor i.e it is the major industry that provides employment for the people living in the community.
This ultimately implies that, the allegiance of the people would be with the fishing industry and as such are less likely to totally agree with Ben's advocacy against commercial farming.
