Answer:

B- Primary Source

Explanation:

Primary Sources are immediate, first-hand accounts of a event, topic, or idea from people that have a direct connection with it. Primary sources can include, but aren't limited to:

  • Texts of laws
  • Original documents
  • Speeches
  • Diaries
  • Letters
  • Interviews
  • Datasets, survey data, such as a census or statistics.
  • Photographs, audio, and video that captured the event
  • Original research
  • Newspaper reports, by reporters who witnessed an event or who quote people who did.

While, secondary sources provide a second-hand information, explanation, and commentary from other researchers and historiographical sources are arguments/interpretations about the past that are built upon a foundation of historical evidence (primary sources). Additionally, chronological source is just a source arranged in the order of time and usually isn't a primary source.

Have a lovely rest of your day! :)
