Question

review the claim and the two pieces of evidence. you should not store bread in the refrigerator. evidence a: according to a science - based cooking website, the starch content in bread means that storing it in a refrigerator makes it become dry, hard, and stale faster. evidence b: a leading food magazine notes that many foods should not be stored in the refrigerator because they retain their taste better if kept at room temperature. why is evidence a stronger than evidence b? evidence b does not directly support the claim. it does not state that it is bad to store bread, specifically, in the refrigerator. evidence b does not come from a credible source. the information is based on the opinions of people who are not experts.

Explanation:

Evidence A focuses specifically on bread, linking refrigeration to it becoming dry, hard, and stale faster, directly supporting the claim about bread storage. Evidence B is a general statement about many foods, not addressing bread specifically, so it fails to directly back the targeted claim about bread. The claim about Evidence B's source not being credible is incorrect, as a leading food magazine is a reputable source.

Answer:

Evidence B does not directly support the claim. It does not state that it is bad to store bread, specifically, in the refrigerator.
