A. direct quotation.
B. end citation.
C. paraphrased statement.
D. plagiarized statement

Answer 1

The answer is A. direct quotation.

This is because it's taken directly and word-for-word from a source, enclosed in quotation marks and cited. It's very direct and precise, hence 'direct quotation'. And since it was cited, it was not stolen or plagiarized.
