Citations are important as they indicate the original source of information or ideas used in a piece of work. By giving credit to the original author or source, one can avoid plagiarism as it demonstrates that the information is not one's own and that permission has been granted to use it. This also helps in avoiding copyright issues and shows that the work is based on a well-researched and credible source.

The correct answer is:
works cited
A works cited is a list of sources that have been cited or referred to in a piece of work. This list is typically placed at the end of the work and includes the author(s), title(s), publisher, date of publication, and other relevant information about each source used in the work. It is designed to provide readers with the information necessary to locate and consult each source if they wish to do so.
Plagiarism is the presentation of the words, ideas, or opinions of someone else as your own. You are guilty of plagiarism if you submit as your own the words or ideas of someone without crediting the source. You are also guilty of cheating/plagiarism if you copy the work of a fellow student, friend, or relative who is no longer in school or an essay from an internet source and submit it as your own. A student who allows such copying is also guilty of plagiarism. Penalties in English classes for cheating/plagiarism include an F for the work involved, and referrals that will become part of your permanent record.

You are using this source for an essay on Lamarr. Which subheading does not fit under your heading Efforts to Defeat the Germans?
A TorpedosTorpedos
B George AntheilGeorge Antheil
C Radio SignalsRadio Signals
D MGM
The subheading that does not fit under the heading Efforts to Defeat the Germans for an essay on Lamarr is:
D - MGM.
Efforts to Defeat the Germans would likely refer to the various contributions and efforts made in defeating the Germans during World War II. The subheadings such as Torpedos, Radio Signals, and George Antheil make sense in this context as they all relate to the significant contributions made by Hedy Lamarr and George Antheil in developing a torpedo guidance system that could be used against the Germans.
However, MGM does not relate to the central theme of the essay and does not seem relevant to Efforts to Defeat the Germans as it focuses on the studio where Hedy Lamarr worked as an actress.
Juan bought a video game console, but after only one week, his remote controller stopped working. The return policy was easy but required an email to the company's quality control department with the reason for the return.
Which does NOT describe an appropriate component for the business email Juan will write?
A explanatory content regarding faulty productexplanatory content regarding faulty product
B narrative on the reason for the purchasenarrative on the reason for the purchase
C standard written English throughoutstandard written English throughout
D focused topic, typically brief in length
The option that does NOT describe an appropriate component for the business email Juan will write is:
B - narrative on the reason for the purchase.
The reason for purchase is not relevant in this scenario as the email is written to the company's quality control department with the reason for the 'return' of a faulty remote controller. Therefore, it is unnecessary to include the narrative of the reason for purchase.
On the other hand, the other three options are relevant to an appropriate business email. These include the explanations of the faulty product and the reason for return in standard written English, along with a focused topic that is brief in length.
