Which statement about writing a research paper is true? A. using an outline will help organize the facts before writing.
b. a rough draft is only needed if you are unsure of your writing style.
c. all facts learned from sources should be used in the report.
d. a research question is not useful after the research is complete.

A is the correct answer.

Why A is correct - A is correct because an outline gathers the thoughts, questions, and ideas related to your paper in a concise, orderly manner.

Why B is incorrect- A rough draft helps ensure that the student knows how to organize their thoughts and get a well developed idea of how to construct their final research paper.

Why C is incorrect- Some facts that you learn won’t actually be necessary in your research paper. You will only need the facts that are revenant to the topic of your passage.

Why D is incorrect- Research questions help further the finish of your paper. The more writing of your paper that ensues, can reveal a lack of other necessary questions that need to be answered and added to your paper.
