Question

1. gary received a low grade on his latest research project because he relied on sources written for a more general audience and are published in publications that are geared toward that type of audience. what term best describes gary’s sources?

○ popular

○ reliable

○ trustworthy

○ academic

Explanation:

Gary's sources are written for a general audience and published in general-audience publications, which matches the definition of "popular" sources (non-scholarly, accessible to the public). "Reliable" and "trustworthy" refer to credibility, not audience type; "academic" sources target scholars/researchers, opposite of Gary's sources.

Answer:

popular
