B and D.

- B (scientific article) provides empirical, peer-reviewed data on the effects of sunlight on alertness.
- D (psychology textbook) offers established, authoritative explanations of mechanisms (serotonin, melatonin) that can support your argument.

The others are weaker: the ad cites no data, the social-media poll is informal and nonrepresentative, and the class blog is anecdotal.
