The correct answer is A. The end parenthesis should be placed before the period.

Explanation:

According to the MLA manual and other manuals used for writing academical papers, if you use information or ideas taken from an external source or author while writing a paper it is always necessary to acknowledge the authorship of the information. Because of this, during in-text citations, in which you quote, summarize or paraphrase another author the last name of the author and the page where the information appear in the original source should be included either by presenting both elements in parenthesis without any internal punctuation or by providing the last name of the author during the text and the page in parentheses at the end of the citation, this includes books, articles and any other document that has both a recognized author and numbered pages.

Considering the previous ideas, in the case of the citation presented (Tishman 56.) the name of the author "Tishman" and the number page "56" have been included, which is correct according to most style manuals. However, the use of the period (.) inside the parentheses is not correct as internal punctuation should not be included and therefore the period should be placed outside the parenthesis. Therefore, the error in this in-text citation is that "the end parenthesis should be placed before the period".

Answer:

Explanation:

Football is a dynamic sport that demands peak physical performance and exceptional mental acuity on the part of its players. It is a game that is simple in essence but complex in application. At a fundamental level, football is basically a version of Capture the Flag; get to the opponent’s end of the field to win the drive and collect points. However, the game provides multiple layers of subtle complexity that contains both a strategic and a tactical dimension. Football is played on a rectangular field that is 120 yards in length and 53.3 yards in width. The area of the field designated for play where the ball may be spotted is 100 yards in length. There is a scoring end zone on each end of the field that is 10 yards long. Eleven players for each team take the field on any given play. The field also includes a set of upright goalposts at the ends of the field for scoring points after touchdown and field goals. The dimensions of the goalposts vary by league, but for college and professional football, the bottom crossbar must be 10 feet above the ground, the upright posts must extend 30 feet above the crossbar, and the two posts must be 18 1/2 feet apart. The game itself is most easily categorized into three sections – the offense, defense and kicking segments.

What are the five principal steps to analyzing an argument ?

Degger [83]

In the very, very simplest terms, judging the validity of an argument starts centers around this process:
1) Identify the rhetoric (Lines of Argument) from the actual, formal reasons. Separate the persuasive language from the actual claims to truth and fact.
2) Analyze those reasons (claims to truth and fact) by identifying their logic (often in the Implicit Reasons) and evidence.
3) Test and evaluate the logic and evidence; identify logical errors and ask whether the evidence can and has been tested and objectively, repeatedly, factually verified.
