Selected Answer: C
A System of Record (SoR) is the authoritative source for a particular data element or domain — where the data originates and is actively maintained. A System of Reference is not the originator of the data but relies on or mirrors authoritative data from another source (usually the SoR) for read-only or non-editable purposes.
