The sentence that does not use a semicolon correctly is "Chinchillas are fascinating; and they live longer than most rodents," option B, as explained below.

<h3>How to use semicolons</h3>

When punctuating sentences, we must pay attention to the correct use of semicolons. Let's use the sentences provided in the question to see the proper use:

  • Sentence 1 - Correct. We should place a semicolon before a clause introduced with "however."
  • Sentence 2 - Incorrect. We should place a comma before the conjunction that introduces an independent clause, not a semicolon.
  • Sentence 3 - Correct. We use semicolons to separate long items on a list.
  • Sentence 4 - Correct. We use semicolons between independent clauses that are not joined by a conjunction.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that sentence that does not use a semicolon correctly is "Chinchillas are fascinating; and they live longer than most rodents," option B.

Why was the white South so committed to keeping a slave based economy​
garik1379 [7]

Building a commercial enterprise out of the wilderness required labor and lots of it. For much of the 1600s, the American colonies operated as agricultural economies, driven largely by indentured servitude. Most workers were poor, unemployed laborers from Europe who, like others, had traveled to North America for a new life. In exchange for their work, they received food and shelter, a rudimentary education and sometimes a trade.

By 1680, the British economy improved and more jobs became available in Britain. During this time, slavery had become a morally, legally and socially acceptable institution in the colonies. As the number of European laborers coming to the colonies dwindled, enslaving Africans became a commercial necessity and more widely acceptable.
