Question

read the claim below.
stevia, a kind of sweetener, is the best sugar substitute.
select the piece of evidence that best supports this claim.
stevia is all - natural, contains no calories, and is up to three hundred times sweeter than sugar.
stevia comes from the leaves of the stevia plant, a shrub that is native to south america.
stevia may leave a bitter aftertaste, so manufacturers often combine it with other sweeteners.

Explanation:

The claim states stevia is the best sugar substitute. Strong supporting evidence highlights advantages over sugar. The first option lists positive traits (natural, zero calories, far sweeter) that make it a superior substitute. The second only notes its origin, which doesn't support it being the best. The third mentions a drawback, which weakens the claim.

Answer:

Stevia is all-natural, contains no calories, and is up to three hundred times sweeter than sugar.
