The correct answer is C) Is the creator old or young?

The question that is not something usually asked when considering a source is "Is the creator old or young?"

When researchers are considering a source, they have to ask some important questions to prove the validity of the information. Questions such as Why was the source created? Is the creator trustworthy? And,

Did the creator see the event?

This way the researcher can select the validity as primary sources and be sure that the information fits with the research. The researcher also can use secondary resources to support its arguments.
