Identify for which claims, if any, support has been given in the following passage; and state in your own words the reasons that have been offered for these claims."For about $200 a ticket you can take a breathtaking flight through the Grand Canyon by helicopter. Fine, unless you are one of the two million people who visit the canyon each year on the ground. For these millions, the pleasures of the canyon's solitude are destroyed by the almost uninterrupted noise from the air. That fact in itself demonstrates that air traffic in the canyon must now be banned-or at least heavily regulated. If the enjoyment of those on the canyon's floor is not enough reason for banning air traffic, then this is: the vibrations may destroy Indian ruins and the noise may drive the peregrine falcon and
bighorn sheep out of their normal habitat in the canyon."
What will be an ideal response?
Air traffic in the canyon should be banned or regulated. Its noise is a continuous disturbance and may harm ruins and native animals.

What might this response look like? Would it be satisfactory? What will be an ideal response
