Which of the following is not a phase in the creation of a historical explanation?

A. inquiry

B. research

C. writing

D. conclusion

i think its c but not sure

Option C is correct, as 'writing' is only really a description of the physical act of creating a document. The other terms outline the nature of the research that has to happen in order to produce the intellectual information that forms a historical explanation, so these are all actually phases in the creation of a historical explanation.
