Answer:

The answer is option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

When using the information available on the internet in a paper, we run the risk of being including data published by an unreliable source. Websites such as Wikipedia (free online encyclopedia), Quora (social media), and Indeed among others, allow people to contribute to their content. Since in a paper you are supposed to include reliable information, it is advisable to consult more specialized sources.
