question 5 of 10
when building an outline, how should a writer categorize each piece of
evidence?

a. according to how recent it is

b. according to the source it came from

c. according to how long it is

d. according to the claim it supports

Explanation:

When creating an outline for a written work, evidence serves to support specific claims or arguments. Categorizing evidence by the claim it supports ensures the outline is logically organized, with each piece of evidence directly tied to the point it is meant to reinforce. The other options (recency, source, length) do not align with the core purpose of structuring an outline around the work's argumentative logic.

Answer:

D. According to the claim it supports
