not 100% sure on the both of them. Please check asap!? Thanks.

I agree with 1, but disagree with your answer for 3.

what about C for #3?

Yes.

thanks Ms. Sue but it was the first one:/

For the first question, you are correct. When considering the authority of a website, the intended audience of the website is not a factor to consider. The other three options - the credentials of the author or organization, contact information for the author or organization, and the domain or URL of the website - are all important indicators of authority.

For the second question, you are also correct. It is NOT true that students may not use biased sources in their research. It is important for students to be aware of bias and use critical thinking skills to evaluate the information they find. The other three options are true statements about bias - bias can be identified by the facts included and excluded, it can be hard to distinguish fact from opinion and advertisements on biased websites, and knowing the background of the author or organization helps identify bias and conflicts of interest.

Let me know if you have any other questions!
