Explanation:

Question 12

• Option a is incorrect as citations and reference lists have distinct roles.
• Option b correctly describes that a citation (in - text) gives author credit, and a reference list (at the end) lists all sources.
• Option c is wrong because citations aren't just for direct quotes, and reference lists include all sources (not just for quotes).

• Option a shows an in - text citation format (author, year, and page for a direct quote).
• Option b also shows a correct in - text citation format (quote first, then author, year, and page).
• So both formats are correct for citing a direct quote.

Answer:

b. A citation is within the body of your paper, when you give an author credit for what they wrote, and a reference list is at the end of your paper, where you list all of the sources, like books and websites, where you found the work of those authors.
