An essential element of historical fiction is the story blends elements of fictional narrative and historical fact.
In order for a fictionalized story to be based on real events, the author should include historical material.
Historical materials relate the past actions which are majorly based on true facts and events. The events are related to something or someone. Historical materials help in linking the fictionalized story to be real and relate to the theme of the story more accurately and clearly. The setting, plot, and character play a major role in the story. Hence, relating them with the historical materials it reflects the story to be authentic and eventful.

Explanation:
The sentence that contains a dangling modifier is D. A dangling modifier is a word or phrase that modifies a word not clearly stated in the sentence. In the sentence above, "preparing for the experiment" is a present participle expressing an action but does not name the doer of the action. In English sentences, the doer of the action must be the subject of the main sentence. However, the doer of the action is not "several slides" (the subject of the main clause). Slides do not have volition, so they can't prepare an experiment.
As the doer of the action is not clearly stated, the participle phrase is said to be dangling. Consequently, you should name the appropriate or logical doer of the action as the subject of the main clause. In this case, it could be an NP such as "the scientist" or you can turn the whole sentence into a when clause --> When the scientist was preparing the experiment, several slides...
