Which sentence correctly uses information from the text while giving credit to the author of Eating Insects?
irakobra [83]
The correct answer would be D. Carson would not be within the quotation marks since he is the one who is telling us this information. With the use of quotation marks, this is a direct statement from said person. And you wouldn’t put “somebody said,” if you were trying to give credit to Carson.

Answer: D “According to Carson, “Insects are healthy, nutritious alternatives to mainstream staples.”
