Which one of the following, if true, most strongly supports the statement above?

  1. If conflicting studies create doubt about the statement

  2. If statistical trends question the statement

  3. If expert testimony confirms the statement

  4. If a hypothetical scenario contradicts the statement

The correct answer is: If expert testimony confirms the statement

Expert testimony confirming the statement would provide strong support for the statement above because experts in the field are considered knowledgeable and credible sources of information. Their testimony adds weight to the validity of the statement. Option A about conflicting studies creating doubt introduces conflicting information, which weakens rather than supports the statement. Option B regarding statistical trends questioning the statement does not directly strengthen the statement but rather raises doubts. Option D with a hypothetical scenario contradicting the statement is also not supportive and actually weakens the argument. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate choice as it directly reinforces the statement with credible expert backing.
