the answer is c, to give proper credit to those authors whose work you have used

You always have to give credit to the authors whose work you have used. If you don't then that is plagiarism and you could get into huge trouble. As a college student I know that if you were to plagiarize then you would be asked to leave and it could also show up on your record employers see.
