Question

1. what is the major difference between primary and secondary sources?○ primary sources are much more reliable than secondary sources.○ primary sources are by authors who directly experienced an event; secondary sources are by those who did not directly experience the event.○ primary sources show many different perspectives of an event; secondary sources show only one perspective of an event.○ primary sources are print sources such as books and magazines; secondary sources are online sources.

Explanation:

Primary sources are created by individuals who directly witnessed or participated in an event, while secondary sources are created by those who did not have direct experience, relying on primary sources for information. The other options are incorrect: primary sources are not inherently more reliable, both can have multiple perspectives, and format (print/online) does not distinguish them.

Answer:

Primary sources are by authors who directly experienced an event; secondary sources are by those who did not directly experience the event.
