Question 10 • SLPS - 2109010-M/J World History A

How is it possible that an eyewitness account can be unverifiable?

Answer
A
The eyewitness is biased about the event.
B
The eyewitness is emotional about the event.
C
The eyewitness is the only person who saw the event.
D
The eyewitness shares multiple perspectives about the event.

Explanation

An eyewitness account is unverifiable when there is no independent evidence or other witness to confirm it. If the eyewitness is the only person who saw the event, nobody else can corroborate what happened. Bias or emotion may affect an account’s reliability, but they do not by themselves make it impossible to verify.
