In Paragraph 5, the author claims that antibiotic use can lead to the formation of superbugs.


Which statement best evaluates the validity of the reasoning the author uses to support this claim?



1 The reasoning is invalid; the author focuses only on the negative aspects of superbugs without balancing the claim with information about how superbugs may be helpful.



2 The reasoning is valid; the author explains the scientific process of how superbugs form by using factual, bias-free language and statistics that establish their existence.



3 The reasoning is valid; the author establishes credibility by relating a detailed personal anecdote of a situation in which repeated use of antibiotics was ineffective.



4 The reasoning is invalid; the author chooses to repeat the claim that antibiotics may contribute to the growth of superbugs rather than provide information as to why this happens.

Answer:

4.The reasoning is invalid; the author chooses to repeat the claim that antibiotics may contribute to the growth of superbugs rather than provide information as to why this happens.

Explanation:

The logic is flawed; rather than explaining why antibiotics may contribute to the emergence of superbugs, the author chooses to reiterate the claim that they may do so. So, option (4) supports this claim.

How can antibiotics lead to superbugs?

Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria evolve and adapt so that they are no longer susceptible to the antibiotics used to treat the diseases they cause.

Antibiotic overuse and misuse hasten the emergence of drug-resistant microorganisms, sometimes known as superbugs.

Superbugs aren't limited to a single type of bacteria; any bacteria species can become superbugs.

According to the CDC, antibiotic misuse (such as taking them when you don't want them or not completing your medication) is the single most important factor contributing to this problem.
