Answer:
D) interconnected
Explanation:
The word "interconnected" shares the same meaning as "between" and shares a prefix with "interpreter".
This is a theme because it is a concept NOT the story line. A plot summary is basically the story line as if you were writing a summary of the book or story.
First, you find the simple subject and simple predicate.
If the '-ing' form of the verb is not part of the simple predicate, then determine how it is used in the sentence. If it's in a noun position, then it's a gerund. If it is used as an adjective, then it will be a participle.
