The third statement is correct: Anita acted as the affirmative party, since she offered evidence supporting the resolution.

(For clarity: Lorenzo was the negative/opposing side, Henrique functioned as the moderator who introduced and stated the resolution, and the teacher acted as the judge who announced the winner.)
