In the article "using dna to solve property crimes," the author explains that even before a five-city field experiment had ended, two of the sites involved were working to secure funding to continue the program. which of the following persuasive criteria does this information demonstrate? a) viewpoint b) evidence c) reasoning d) assumption

This information demonstrates evidence. It is based on a situation which has already taken place as the author talks about an experiment. The results of that experiment are described by the author.

It is not a viewpoint as it is not the author's opinion.

It is not a reasoning because the experiment actually took place and drew its own results. Nobody has reasoned upon them.

Finally, it is not an assumption given that it is based on factual evidence.

answer: this is not a good thesis statement because a thesis statement is not supposed to have questions in it. a thesis states your position on your topic. a question cannot state anything because it is not a statement. a question is a great lead in to a thesis, but it can't be the thesis.
