Question

34 (a) part a how do the authors support the claim that food is an essential part of life? a by explaining how a school decided to start growing its own food b by describing some of the foods that students have grown c by explaining how fresh foods can be grown on school land d by describing what students can learn about the world from food

Explanation:

To determine how the authors support the claim that food is essential, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Explaining a school's food - growing decision focuses on the school's action, not food's essentiality to life.
• Option B: Describing foods students grew is about the grown foods, not food's essential role in life.
• Option C: Explaining food growth on school land is about the growth method, not food's importance to life.
• Option D: Describing what students learn about the world from food implies food's role in understanding life (since learning about the world is part of life), thus supporting food's essentiality.

Answer:

D. by describing what students can learn about the world from food
