A. EducateAmerica.gov

When you are performing your research online, you will always be presented with thousands (if not millions) of results. It can seem like a daunting task to try to sift through and vet all of the information in the results returned. One quick way to help yourself in determining what is credible is to look at the domain extension (.com, .org, .edu, .gov, .net). The domain names that can trusted to be reliable/credible sources of information are education (.edu) and government (.gov) sites because these sites can always be trusted to present researched and validated information free from biased/persuasive elements.

The answer is 1, EducateAmerica.gov. Websites with ".gov" at the end are managed by government officials/ are supported by the government, and would often provide you with a lot of data on the topic that you are researching.
