Answer 1

The detail that would not be relevant to the argument about adopting shelter animals instead of buying pets is:

Cats are more popular pets than dogs.

This detail does not directly support the argument for adopting shelter animals and focuses instead on the popularity comparison between cats and dogs, which is unrelated to the primary issue of adoption versus buying.
