Question

in his argument in favor of starting classes later in the morning, joão is addressing the counterclaim that classes should not start later because doing so would limit students opportunity to participate in school sports and clubs. although starting classes later might well make it impossible for students to spend as many hours on after - school sports, getting more sleep would ensure that they got more out of the time they did spend on those activities. with more sleep, their sporting performance would actually improve. which evidence would best support joãos rebuttal? select three options. - sleep deprivation harms memory. - overtired teens are more prone to accidents. - researchers do not know why human beings need to sleep. - sleep deprivation has been used as an interrogation technique. - teens dealing from sleep deprivation lose the ability to focus.

Explanation:

João's rebuttal argues that later start times (and more sleep) improve the quality of students' after-school activity participation, even if time spent is reduced. Evidence supporting this must link more sleep to better performance/focus in those activities, or harm from sleep deprivation that undermines such activities.

1. "Sleep deprivation harms memory" supports it: poor memory reduces learning/performance in sports/clubs.
2. "Overtired teens are more prone to accidents" supports it: accidents risk safety and participation in sports/clubs.
3. "Teens dealing from sleep deprivation lose the ability to focus" supports it: lack of focus directly impairs performance in sports and club activities.

The other options are irrelevant: unknown sleep reasons do not support the link, and sleep deprivation as interrogation is unrelated to student activity performance.

Answer:

• Sleep deprivation harms memory.
• Overtired teens are more prone to accidents.
• Teens dealing from sleep deprivation lose the ability to focus.
