names of publishing companies

Explanation:

Identify core elements of a works cited page

A standard works cited page (such as in MLA format) requires specific bibliographic elements to identify sources:

• Names of authors (Who created the source)
• Names of publishing companies (Who distributed the source)
• Dates of publication (When the source was published)

Evaluate incorrect options

• Definitions of key terms (Belongs in a glossary or body text, not a works cited entry)
• Cities of publication (No longer required in modern MLA style for most sources, and not a standard general requirement compared to publisher/date)
• Descriptions of authors (Belongs in an annotation or body text, not a standard works cited entry)

Answer:

• names of publishing companies (Correct answer)
• names of authors (Correct answer)
• definitions of key terms
• dates of publication (Correct answer)
• cities of publication
• descriptions of authors
