Peter: Because the leaves of mildly drought-stressed plants are tougher in texture than the leaves of abundantly watered plants, insects prefer to feed on the leaves of abundantly watered plants. Ttherefore, to minimize crop damage, farmers should water crops only just enough to ensure that there is no substantial threat, from a lack of water, to either the growth or the yield of the crops. Jennifer: Indeed. In fact, a mildly drought-stressed plant will divert a small amount of its resources from normal growth to the development of pesticidal toxins, but abundantly watered plants will not. Jennifer's comment is related to Peter's argument in which one of the following ways? ["It supports Peter's argument by offering an explanation of all of Peter's premises.", 'It offers information that supports each of the claims that Peter makes in his argument.', "It supports Peter's argument by supplying a premise without which Peter's conclusion cannot properly be drawn.", "It supports the conclusion of Peter's argument by offering independent grounds for that conclusion."]
