Answer 1

The correct response is: Facts cannot be copyrighted.

In nonfiction, the use of facts, data, or information that is not the creative expression of an author is generally allowed under fair use, since these elements cannot be copyrighted. In contrast, fictional works often contain more original creative expression, which is protected by copyright, leading to stricter guidelines on how those works can be used.
