Answer:

(C) The baby cried.

Explanation:

Independent clauses are those words or groups of words that have a meaningful passage, can make complete sentence on it's own. independent clauses are always present in a sentence.

There are two types of clauses- independent and subordinate. While independent clauses are the words that make sense and can be used on their own, subordinate clauses are just the opposite. They are just the other half of the sentence that does not have any meaning by itself.

Out of the four options provided, the third option (C) is an independent clause. "The baby cried" is a complete sentence on it's own, making a meaningful sentence. The other options (A), (B) and (D) are all subordinate clauses as they form only a part of a sentence, with no real sense on it's own.

(Which is my favorite sport) how do I put this in a complex sentence
asambeis [7]

Answer:

If you need a sentence of your own, you can use this clause <em>Which is my favorite sport</em> as a non-restrictive relative clause to give some additional information about a sport. For example,

Cycling, which is my favorite sport, has never been absent from the Olympic program.

Explanation:

A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.

A dependent clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb. It does not express a complete thought, so it is not a sentence and can't stand alone.

<em>Which is my favorite sport</em> is a dependent clause as it cannot stand as a sentence by itself.

So you need to add an independent clause to have a complex sentence.

<em>Cycling has never been absent from the Olympic program</em> is an independent clause. You add your clause <em>which is my favorite sport</em> simply  to give some additional information about cycling.

Why does Odysseus choose to go on Scylla's side of the strait? Answer in complete sentences.
MArishka [77]
In Book XII of Homer's The Odyssey, Odysseus and his men are leaving the land of Circe and she advises them on where to go next. She tells them that they will run into Scylla or Charydbis. She told Odysseus that while Scylla would eat 6 of his men, the ship and the remaining men would be safe to continue their journey. On the other hand, if he sailed near Charydbis, it would swallow the whole ship and eat all men. It was a clear decision to make because it was preferable to lose only part of his crew than everyone.
