B. e-view
C. Scopus
D. Urkund
E. Quetext
A, D and E only
This question asks which of the listed software are used for checking plagiarism - the practice of detecting copied or unoriginal text in academic writing.
Evaluating each item:
Turnitin is one of the most widely used plagiarism-detection and similarity-checking tools - included.
Urkund (now Ouriginal) is a dedicated plagiarism-detection service adopted by many universities, including under UGC guidelines - included.
Quetext is an online plagiarism checker that highlights matching text - included.
e-view is not a plagiarism checker - excluded.
Scopus is an abstract and citation database (used for indexing and bibliometrics), not a plagiarism tool - excluded.
Hence the plagiarism-checking software are Turnitin, Urkund and Quetext, i.e. A, D and E only.
Why the other options are wrong: any combination that includes e-view or Scopus is incorrect because e-view is not a plagiarism tool and Scopus is a citation/indexing database, not a similarity checker.
Takeaway: Turnitin, Urkund and Quetext detect plagiarism; Scopus is a citation database and e-view is unrelated.
Correct answer: A, D and E only (Turnitin, Urkund, Quetext)
