Answer:
In the sentence, the phrase of a cave bear functions as an adverb prepositional phrase. An adverb prepositional phrase modifies a verb, adjective, or adverb. It usually tells when, where, how, why, or to what extent (how many, how much, how long, or how far), and under what condition.
Explanation:
Assuming the bolded words are: <em>"for strong bones and teeth"</em> and that you had to choose between:
- <em>noun phrase</em>
- <em>adverb phrase</em>
- <em>verb phrase</em>
- <em>adjective phrase</em>
It is an adjective phrase (4).
An adjective phrase is a group of words complementing, specifying, or modifying a 'head' adjective in the sentence. It is called an adjective (or adjectival) phrase because the whole group of words functions as an adjective, which means it provides information about a noun.
Here, the adjective phrase "for strong bones and teeth" is specifying the head adjective "essential." It is functioning as an adjective for the noun "calcium" by giving us information about it.
Regarding the difference between fiction and nonfiction, the statement that is most accurate is that nonfiction writers are more often free to move about in time and space. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the third option or option "c". Fiction writers do not need to be realistic.
Answer:
Compound sentence.
Explanation:
A compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses (with no dependent ones; if there is a dependent clause included, then it is a compound-complex sentence). There are two independent clauses in the sentence above: <em> Its proprietor, Roderick usher, had been one of my boon companions in boyhood </em>AND <em>but many years had elapsed since our last meeting.</em>
There are no dependent clauses here - both clauses are independent and can exist on their own.
