D. taking notes to be used in the paper.

Respuesta :

B. Create a question
You can't write a thesis statement without knowing what you are going to write about

Answer:

B. creating a question that focuses the process.

Explanation:

Once a topic is approved for research, the next step would be to write a question that focuses the process. A topic is generally too open and unspecific to allow us to write a research project about it directly. Therefore, we need another strategy to narrow the topic down, and the best strategy is to create a question. This allows us to define what we want to answer, and why this is important, and enable us to create a thesis statement that is clear, focused and relevant.
