Question

During which of the working phases do historians ask a big question?

A. research
B. inquiry
C. writing
D. library

Answer 1

The answer would be B,

because inquiry by definition means to seek or request for truth, information, or knowledge.

So in short inquiry means asking a question.

Answer 2

Although this can vary slightly depending on the historian and the project in question, the best option would be "inquiry", since this is when the historian is finding a question that he or she wants to answer through research.
