Answer:

Information is used, but it is organized based on these major components of an argument:

Claim, Reason, Evidence, Counter-Claim, and Rebuttal.

Explanation::

Claim:

What are you trying to prove of argue.

Reason:

It is provided to support a claim.

Evidence:

It is used to support a reason; they can be statistics, facts, quotations or surveys.

Counter-Claim:

Opposing position, counterargument.

Rebuttal:

Disproves the counterclaim; addresses the criticism of the claim.

YOU CAN ALSO ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS FOR EVEN SIMPLER WRITING..........:

Claim: What do I think?

Reason: Why do I think it?

Evidence: How do I know (proof)?

Counterclaim: What is the other side?

Rebuttal: My response to the other side?
