Answer: B. It can be supported by evidence

C. It clearly takes one side of an issue

Explanation: It is certainly a characteristic of the aforementioned claim that can be proved. For example, statistics as an evidence, can be provided on the percentage of obese children as well as an analysis of those percentages, which is why so many children are obese. Of course, because of the speed of life and the job that parents have, it is easiest for children to buy a snack at junk food stores that are available both near schools and within schools. In addition, it can be easily demonstrated that working with children to promote healthier lifestyles and healthy diets can greatly reduce childhood obesity and raise awareness about healthy eating only if one wants to do so with children. And there is also evidence that schools can.

On the other hand, all this is just one side of the problem, and that is the school's work on banning junk food and raising awareness among children about healthy eating. Of course, it is not only the school that is responsible for this, although responsibility, as stated above, is also at the school. Many other social factors influence the appearance and growth of this problem. Low social responsibility for children and youth by those who sell food and whose interest is the profit itself and not the health of children and therefore the future of the nation. Insufficient activity of those who could raise awareness of the importance of healthy eating in children such as NGOs through their actions, etc
