Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Plagiarism detection software typically excludes specific sections to avoid false positives. The Bibliography (E) is excluded because citations are expected to appear in multiple documents. Generic terms and laws (B) are also ignored as they lack originality. Therefore, these sections do not contribute to the similarity score.
