Even if a writer uses quotation marks and citations for the source material they use, they can still plagiarize by leaning too heavily on these sources.

The correct answer is True. Even if you quote and reference all the source material, you need to bring your own ideas to the text.

There is a reasonable percentage of the text that can be from other authors, but if you lean too heavily on these sources, you are just rewiting their texts.
