Which claims are best supported by reasons and relevant evidence? Select two options. Children’s rooms are their own, and parent
ikadub [295]

The two claims that are best supported by reasons and relevant evidence are:

1) Exercising regularly will improve many aspects of one's life. Not only will you sleep better at night, but you will also learn better during the day and feel better in general. Many studies have shown the many benefits of regular exercise, and my doctor agrees with them.

This claim is supported by scientific evidence shown by studies and a professional opinion (although poorly presented).

2) Parents should teach their children financial responsibility early in life. Not only do children have expenses such as meals, snacks, and transportation, but they also need to learn how to realistically budget for their needs according to their income. This is an economic lesson that will prove invaluable when they grow up.

This claim is supported by real factual evidence (the expenses that most children have daily and the undeniable effect that learning this lesson will have in their future) .
