The wrong answer is'D .I'm afraid that the mice wheels creak all night long
The correct answers to the questions are:
3. D. Theirs - This is the third person plural possessive.
4. A. Common - This is the kind of adjective that is used most frequently in ordinary speech or writing.
5. B. object - This is what a noun that completes an action is called.
Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
An independent clause is a set of words that can hold on its own as a sentence. It has a subject, verb and complete thought, as most would say. A dependent clause on the other hand cannot stand on its own.
The answer to this is "She can't study in France.".
Patricia does not know French is not the complete clause, Because Patricia does not know French is an dependent clause easily identified because it starts with BECAUSE and of course BECAUSE is not a clause, it is a subordinating conjunction.
For this I would choose the first choice, A. "Eileen bought pants but not a new jacket."
A complex sentence is formed by an independent and a dependent clause. An independent clause is a part of a sentence that can still be a sentence on it's own. For example, "Eileen bought pants." could be a valid sentence.
A dependent clause is the opposite, and is a part of a sentence that can not still be a sentence on it's own. "But not a new jacket." is not a valid sentence.
I hope this was helpful.
