Question

which statement best explains why this is a strong claim?
testing on animals has many benefits and should be continued.
a. it is reasonable and arguable.
b. it is unreasonable but easy to prove.
c. it is unproven.
d. it has only one side.

Explanation:

A strong claim should be reasonable (has a logical basis, like animal testing having medical benefits) and arguable (others can disagree, e.g., some oppose it for ethical reasons). Option B is wrong as the claim is reasonable. Option C is wrong because a claim being unproven doesn't make it strong. Option D is wrong as a strong claim should be debatable (have multiple sides), not one - sided. So the correct option is A.

Answer:

A. It is reasonable and arguable.
