HELP!!

Sally is writing a research paper about blue whales. She gathered several sources about their
migration patterns, but then she decided to focus on their feeding grounds instead. Should
Sally still include the articles about migration patterns in her Works Cited page even though
she didn't cite them in her paper.

No, a works cited page only includes the sources actually used in a research paper.

No, Sally doesn't need to have a works cited page at all.

Yes, every source that Sally read should be included, even unreliable ones.

Yes, Sally might use that information later in another research paper.
search papel.

The answer is No, a works cited page only includes the sources actually used in a research paper.

Explanation: If Sally read 5 sources but only used the information from 2 in her paper, the 2 she used are the only ones that are relevant in citations. She needs to only cite the sources she used in the paper and not the sources she read but didn’t use.
