The best revision of this sentence is the following:

The lawyer presented a clear argument to the jury (it was unbelievable how influenced they were by his case) in the hopes of winning the trial.

A pair of parentheses needs to be used in order to separate this information from the rest of the sentence and facilitate reading and comprehension. The information in the parentheses is related to the meaning of the sentence but in some way it interrupts the flow, so a pair of parentheses is necessary in order to indicate this.

Rzqust [24]

The correct answer is C. (Perenson 30)

Explanation:

In writing, a citation refers to the use of the words and ideas of an external source and therefore another author, which is commonly used to support and explain the ideas during a text. According to the MLA manual and other style manuals for writing academical paper when using the ideas or words of another author it is necessary to make clear which ideas are being used and to whom they belong, this is done by using in-text citation during the text and creating a work cited list at the end of the document with all the information of the source cited.

In the case of printed articles from magazines or similar publications, it is established during in-text citation it is necessary to include the last name of the author of the article followed by the page number which is usually done by including this information in parenthesis or doing a parenthetical citation. This means in the case of the source presented the parenthetical citation should include the last name of the author "Perenson" and the page number "30" therefore the option that shows the correct parenthetical citation of this source is  (Perenson 30).
