Answer 2

Answer: C



If there are two different authors with the same last name but different first names they should be cited alphabetically by first name. And in order for the readers to differentiate them we include the first and middle initials and then the last name. For example, A.B. Heckels (2001) and D. E. Heckels (2001).
