answer: d. shorter than the original source and in the researcher’s words.

there are two main ways to quote a source. a direct quotation occurs when you copy the exact words of the source, and place these between quotation marks. an indirect quotation, on the other hand, occurs when you paraphrase the author's words. paraphrasing means transmitting the information of the source in your own words. the result is usually shorter than that of the original source.
