Detailed explanation-1: -In-text citations acknowledge the source of information in the body of the text. Never cite a source that you have not read, directly observed, or spoken to, unless you indicate that it is a secondary source (see below). There are a variety of different styles to in-text citations.
Detailed explanation-2: -What is a Citation? A citation identifies for the reader the original source for an idea, information, or image that is referred to in a work. In the body of a paper, the in-text citation acknowledges the source of information used. At the end of a paper, the citations are compiled on a References or Works Cited list.
Detailed explanation-3: -A citation is both a signpost and an acknowledgement. As a signpost, it signals the location of your source. As an acknowledgement, it reveals that you are indebted to that source.
