d. a formal report that provides scientific facts and data to support the ideas in a text

The correct answer is A. An explanation written in one’s own words that provides all of the details and information in a text

Explanation:

The word "retelling" that is defined as "recount or inform again" refers to the action of presenting either through a text or oral presentation the content of other material without omitting any details of them, which means all the content is preserved but different words or language is used from the original. This implies retelling is different from other processes such as summarizing, evaluating or analyzing because the objective is not to evaluate the content of a text or material or to state only the key points but to report all the original ideas on it.

Considering this, the statement that best describe retelling is "An explanation written in one’s own words that provides all of the details and information in a text", because this is the only option in which the information from the original source is being preserved and the voice or opinion of the author is not included, which means the content of the original text  is just being recounted or informed which is the purpose of retelling.
