Answer 1

The correct representation of the general APA format for a reference entry for an encyclopedia or dictionary is:

Publisher. (n.d.). Title of Entry. In Publication. Retrieved Month Day, Year, from URL

This format includes the publisher's name, the year (noted as (n.d.) if no date is available), the title of the entry, the publication title, the retrieval date, and the URL.
