Answer:

The pronoun that correctly completes the sentence is <em>them.</em>

Explanation:

The sentence above contains a compound subject. A compound subject is one that consists of more than one noun (my father, my sisters). The individual elements in a compound subject are joined by a coordinating or correlative conjunctions.

When <em>and</em> is used to join the elements in a compound subject, the compound subject is treated as plural. However, when using <em>or, either/or, </em>or <em>neither/nor, </em>the compound subject might be singular or plural. Usually, if all the elements are singular, then it should be treated as singular. Yet, this is not the case. The NP "sisters" is plural, so the compound subject should be treated as plural despite of the fact that it has been coordinated by <em>or. </em>Therefore, the pronoun that correctly completes the sentence is <em>them.</em>

Them because the sentence said "father or sisters" which is multiple people. It is not specifying only one person. If it was only one person it would be "him" or "her". So the correct answer is them

The suffixes -ed, -ful, -ing, and -y can be added to the end of the word taste.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Look at each of the words:
tasted
tasteful
tasteing
tastey

as you can see, the last two words should be spelled tasting and tasty, but the first two words are correct without dropping their e's.
So the answers are the suffixes
-ed and -ful
