The correct answer is B. Dr. Joseph Badeem, author of the book Sensory Insights, says that newborn infants are better able to distinguish color than most people believe (25).
Explanation:
An in-text citation refers to using ideas or words from an external information source while writing a text this includes summarizing ideas of an external source, quoting or using the exact words of the source and paraphrasing which means using the ideas of an external source but writing them in your own words. According to the MLA which is the Modern Language Association which is the association that regulates the parameters that should be used to publish academical documents if in-text citations are used, the author of the paper needs to include the author's last name and the page in which this appears.
This can be done by including the author's last name and page at the end of the citation in parenthesis or by mentioning the author's name before the citation as part of the text and including the number page in parentheses, in this case the last name of the author should not be included in the parentheses as it was already mentioned. Considering this, the statement that uses correct MLA in-text citation is " Dr. Joseph Badeem, author of the book Sensory Insights, says that newborn infants are better able to distinguish color than most people believe (25)", because in this the last name including the first name of the author is mentioned and at the end of the citation the page number is included in parenthesis, which is one of the correct ways to present the information of the author during in-text citations according to the MLA.
