The correct answer is D)Evaluate the evidence used to support it.

A good historian will read the claims of other individuals and will conduct independent reserach in order to verify their claims. If a historian is reading a research paper uses specific resources to support their claim, historians will look into the other resources to see if they are legitimate. This type of investigation results in questions such as who is publishing this paper, why are they publishing this paper, and what biases they may have. All of these questions will allow an individual to determine whether the evidence used to support it is legitimate.
