Question

Both of the following are acceptable MLA parenthetical citations: Higgenbutto states that the level of the ocean waters is increasing due to global warming (38). The level of the ocean waters is increasing due to global warming (Higgenbutto 38).O True O False

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In MLA style, we should follow the author-page method for citation. For in-text citation or parenthetical citation, we can insert the last name of author either in the sentence or in a parentheses which comes after the quotation or paraphrase. However, page numbers should be always inserted in parentheses not in the sentence.

Based on the above-mentioned information, both sentences are acceptable.
