Respuesta :

Answer:

I think that it is D

Explanation:

Answer:

Option C.

Explanation:

The website that Liza has clicked on is most likely an unreliable form of source as it is sponsored by a business. In the passage it says how when Liza searched for the concept diabetes, she found a resource that was selling blood-glucose monitors and that it was sponsored by a company. When she clicked on it, the website asked for her personal contact information as it is normal procedure for businesses that sell products to go, in order to be able to process your payment and to contact you in case they need to. While this action is not unreliable by itself, it does make the website not reliable as a source for conducting research on diabetes. This is due to the fact that the website is trying to sell a product and not to give objective facts about the disease to the general public.
