Question

Claire wants to use a quote by a famous author in an article she is writing about the declining population of Great White sharks. She will not be infringing the copyright of the author if she makes a citation in the article.True / False.

Answer 1

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The given statement asserts a true claim as if Claire appropriately acknowledges the reference to the 'quote' by the famous author to alleviate and substantiate her claim in order to establish its credibility, it would not be categorized as the 'infringement of the copyrights'. A reference to a work is categorized as 'violation or infringement of copyrights' when any writer or author presents or passes on any of the idea, quote, or reference to the original work as his own without citing it. Since Claire is not doing anything like that, the given assertions assert a true claim.
