Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Prosecutors are expected to act as zealous advocates for the state and present their case in a forceful and passionate manner. "Extraordinary" and "representative" do not accurately capture the nature of a prosecutor's role, and "balanced" suggests a neutral stance which is not appropriate for an adversarial system.
