The correct answer is <u>option A. Marty's friend counterclaim is appropriate because it is both defensible and arguable</u>. A counterclaim is a response to the claim, with the objective of rebutting the statement that was made in the claim. Marty's friend counterclaim, stating that nutrition education has no effect on obesity, is an acceptable counterclaim because it is capable of being defended and but is also arguable, meaning that it is not certain or clearly true, it is open for debate.

What are reasons for why the federal government should have more power the state governments? State over federal?
densk [106]

Federal Government > State Government

The rationale for this is that we live in a global world and need collective responses to global challenges. Instead of there being a Utah response and a Virginia response to the need for more STEM graduates, there should be a US response. Economies of scale also come into play. It can cost less and be more efficient to have resources centralized.

State Government > Federal Government

America was founded after a revolution rejected a strong central monarchy and America needs to continue to honor that by allowing citizens in Utah to have different approaches than Virginia. When convenient, the states can choose to collectively band together on issues like defense but that should be the exception and not the rule.
