Question

how does the following excerpt from a classroom speech violate the guidelines for supporting materials presented in your textbook?
according to a study earlier this year by the meyers survey research company funded by mcdonalds, there is no clear correlation between obesity and the consumption of fast food.
all of these answers are correct.
it doesnt include statistics.
it doesnt indicate whether the information came from the internet.
both it doesnt present information from an unbiased source and it doesnt include statistics.
it doesnt present information from an unbiased source.

Explanation:

The excerpt cites a study funded by McDonald’s, a fast-food company with a vested interest in the topic (no correlation between obesity and fast food), so the source is biased. It also lacks specific statistics (e.g., sample size, correlation coefficient) to support the claim. The option stating both issues is correct.

Answer:

Both it doesn't present information from an unbiased source and it doesn't include statistics.
