The writer correctly used parentheses to de-emphasize a non-restrictive element in the sentence, as shown in the first answer option.

<h3>What is a non-restrictive element?</h3>
  • It is a group of words added to the sentence.
  • It is the group of words that can be excluded from the sentence without changing their meaning.
  • It is the group of words that explain or extend the meaning of a term.

Non-restrictive elements are usually separated from sentences by commas, but this separation can also be done with parentheses, giving greater evidence to the element.

The above question is incomplete. The complete question is in the attached image.
