Dwayne plans to write an essay arguing that the best way to help students become healthy is to remove soda from the school’s vending machines. However, he has come across two studies showing that limiting access to soda in schools has very little effect on how much soda students drink.

What is the best way Dwayne could respond to this new information?

by adjusting his claim to suggest other ways to help students make healthy choices
by stating in his claim that past studies about soda cannot predict the success of his plan
by criticizing the new sources by finding problems with their experiments and case studies
by making a note at the end of his essay that removing soda may not make students healthier
