Answer:

A) They are a form of nonfiction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Google describes biographies as:

"Describe and discuss the life of a real person. Information is based on fact. Incidents, dialogue, and people are accurate and from a reliable source using first person accounts when available."

And describes nonfiction as:

"Characteristics of a non-fiction text includes the presence of a table of contents, headings, captions, diagrams, charts, graphs, a glossary and an index. ... Another characteristic of non-fiction is the presence of a narrator, who is a real person and often the author of the text."

Therefore, biographies are a form of nonfiction, thus proving option A is the correct choice.

Thank you for your time, and please have a wonderful rest of your day!!

~Hope this actually helps someone!!~\(^u^\)
