The evidence that best supports the student's claim is:
a diagram illustrating how plants use carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to produce food and oxygen gas.
This is because it directly relates to the cycling of gases (like carbon dioxide and oxygen) that are crucial for life on Earth. It demonstrates the interconnectedness of Earth's spheres and how they contribute to maintaining conditions suitable for life.
