Answer 1 is correct.
Reasons are the logical explanations or premises offered to support a claim; evidence is the factual material (data, statistics, examples, testimony) used to back up those reasons. For example: reason — “Parks improve public health”; evidence — “a study found a 20% drop in obesity rates in neighborhoods with parks.”
