Explanation

The matches are the police claim as prejudice, the party claim as opinion, the rest advice, and obesity as fact.

'Women are not suitable for police service' is an unfounded biased verdict, a prejudice.

'No party should stay in power too long' expresses a debatable view, an opinion.

'Have proper rest even at exam time' recommends an action, so it is advice.

'Obesity is a risk factor for heart disease' is an established finding, a fact.
