Student Answer C
Correct Answer A

Answer 1

A. no other sources present the same information or point of view.

Answer 2

A. no other sources present the same information or point of view.

I mostly hear the word corroborate in reference to a person's testimony during trial. A person who is innocent and trying to prove they were not at a specific location during a crime would need an alibi. The alibi would corroborate the person's testimony. This means it would prove that the person is telling the truth because it would show the same information.
