Gather research for an essay about a hoax from the past. Eventually you'll explain the background of the hoax and people's reactions to it, but for now your task is to conduct research.

First you'll come up with a research question that will give you some direction as you search for sources about the topic. You'll find at least five sources and evaluate each for its credibility and relevance. You'll then choose the three strongest.
Your assignment should include the following elements:

A research question to guide your search for sources
A list of five sources that can potentially help you answer the research question
A final list of three sources that are credible and relevant to the topic
At least one source that is a different type of medium than the others

You should have completed a draft of this assignment in the activity before this one. If you haven't done so, go back and complete that activity now.

Answer:

the Loch Ness Monster is a mythical animal that allegedly lives in Loch Ness, a large freshwater lake near Inverness, Scotland. Although accounts of an aquatic beast living in the lake date back 1,500 years, all efforts to find any credible evidence of the animal have failed. That hasn’t dampened the public’s enthusiasm, however, for any news about “Nessie.”Loch Ness, located in the Scottish Highlands, has the largest volume of fresh water in Great Britain; the body of water reaches a depth of nearly 800 feet and a length of about 23 miles.
