Short answer: "That" is used to introduce essential clauses or information, while the pronoun "which" is used to add non-essential or non-defining clauses. Also, these non-essential clauses are set off with commas.

Explanation:

First of all, the words "that" and "which" are both relative pronouns; this means, both introduce clauses that describe a noun previously mentioned. However, the pronoun "that" should be used only to introduce essential or defining clauses (information that cannot be omitted); for example "She is the woman that I love". On the other hand, the word "which" introduces information that is not essential or non-defining clauses; for example "The house, which is located near the sea, is stunning". Moreover, clauses introduced by which are set off in commas to show they are not essential.

Create an in-text citation for the following information. Remember, your spacing and punctuation must be exact. NOTE: If you nee
12345 [234]

In MLA when you need to create an in-text citation of a paraphrase, it is necessary to indicate the source by including the author and the page number. Since you did not include the author of the article or any passage to cite specifically, here are some formats you could follow:

According to <em>name of the author</em>, "passage in quotations" (<em>56</em>).

"Passage in quotations" (<em>name of author 56</em>).

Essentially, you need to include the passage in quotations and can add whatever else you need to to your sentence. In the first format, you include the author's name within the sentence, so you don't need to include it at the end. The rest of the information, like the title of the article or the date it was published does not need to be included in an in-text citation, but must be included in your reference list.
