Question 10 • OK-English Language Arts 12 A1 – EDGNTY-83861 26-27

Celeste is writing an essay on how caffeinated drinks negatively affect the teen brain. Which source would provide Celeste with the most useful evidence?

Answer
A
a study identifying which drinks have the highest levels of caffeine
B
a study on how overindulging in caffeine can lead to bone loss
C
a study identifying which caffeinated beverages improve brain function
D
a study on how caffeine consumption interferes with brain development

Explanation

Celeste needs evidence about the negative effects of caffeine on the teen brain. A study on how caffeine interferes with brain development directly addresses both the effect and the brain-related focus of her essay. Bone loss is a negative effect but is not about the brain, while the other studies focus on caffeine levels or possible benefits.
