Explanation:

Question 1

To determine the credibility of a source's claims, evidence (text, photos, data, etc.) that supports the claim and provides a good reason to believe it is necessary. This aligns with the concept of source credibility relying on supporting evidence. So the statement is True.

The statement defines evidence as text, photos, data, etc., that support a claim and give a good reason to believe it, which is a correct description of what evidence is. So the statement is True.

If a source lacks evidence, it is reasonable to be suspicious about the accuracy and factuality of its information, as evidence is crucial for validating claims. So the statement (saying you should NOT be suspicious) is False.

Answer:

True
