Miguel is researching the effects of pollution on the Pacific Ocean, and he has found several potential sources. Which is a scholarly source?

Answer
A
an academic journal about the marine environment
B
an interactive website about deep-sea fishing
C
a surfer’s blog that contains daily observations
D
a message board that contains people’s questions about sea life

Explanation

Scholarly sources are written or reviewed by experts and typically present research or informed analysis. An academic journal about the marine environment is the choice most likely to meet those standards. A website, blog, or message board may be useful, but those formats do not necessarily involve expert review.
