The correct answer is D. subject-linking verb-predicate adjective

Explanation:

Sentence patterns are common structures in language composed of different elements arranged in order. In the case of "subject-linking verb-predicate adjective" this is one of the most common sentence patterns in English, and includes first a Subject which is a noun described or related to the verb; then a Linking verb such as be, smell, seem or become that connects the subject to the predicate; and finally a Predicate Adjective that contains words that describe or qualify the subject using adjectives rather than nouns.

This structure of the sentence " The hummingbird was green and red.", considering int his the firs element is the subject "The humming verb" this is followed by one common linking verb "was" (verb to be), and finally there are two adjectives "green and red" that are the predicate adjective as they describe the subject, and complete the meaning of the sentence.

The answer is D, because the adjectives are describing the subject

The sentence below may contain a fragment or run-on sentence. If you think the sentence is correct and does not contain a fragme

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

When independent clauses are joined incorrectly (with improper punctuation or conjunction), we have what is called a run-on sentence. An independent clause is a group of words that can stay alone as a sentence, which means it offers information that makes sense without the help of another sentence.

A sentence fragment is basically an incomplete sentence. That means it is a phrase that is missing a key element, such as a verb or a subject, or a phrase that is dependent on a main clause but has been detached from it through wrong punctuation.

The sentence "After falling to the warm, damp forest floor, plants decay and release nutrients" is complete, and the punctuation is used appropriately. It might look confusing at first since the main clause came after the subordinate one. If we invert the clauses, we'll see there is no problem with the sentence - note that a comma will disappear now that the main clause comes first:

Plants decay and release nutrients after falling to the warm, damp forest floor.
