Question

Luke is writing a research paper on the benefits of drinking milk. In his paper, he explains that milk is a good source of calcium.
Does Luke need to cite this information? Why or why not?
A.
Yes, because it is not common knowledge.
B.
No, because it is common knowledge.
C.
Yes, because it is common knowledge.
D.
No, because it is not common knowledge.

Answer 1

I am pretty sure that the answer is B. because knowing that milk is a good source of vitamin D is something that our parents and many people just throw around. However, if Luke wrote how much percent of vitamin D milk had than he would probably have to site that because that is not common knowledge. Common knowledge is anything that you don't have to look up mainly; something that many if not everyone knows like milk is a good source of vitamin D. Hope that helps and most importantly I hope it is right because questions can be tricky lol
