Answer:

A). It is biased.

Explanation:

The credibility of the given passage by Columbus can be questioned as it offers a biased representation of the inhabitants. <em><u>This prejudice is evident from the use of descriptive words like 'timid, full of terror, guileless, liberal, etc.' which imposes the author's feelings and opinions on to the readers</u></em>. A text is characterized as credible when it offers an objective representation of the topic with sufficient evidences to support his/her claim. But here the author merely passes his judgment without any evidence to back it which shows the bias. This puts the trustworthiness of the content in question. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
