The word <em>and</em> in the sentence is a conjunction. It links the words net and traps.

Further Explanation

  • Conjunctions join words, phrases, and clauses together. They serve as glue used to string words into more complex statements seamlessly.  
  • <em>Example: Popcorn and soda are my favorite snacks. </em>
  • Linking verbs are verbs that connect the subject to descriptions in the predicate. They are not action words that are typical of verbs. Linking verbs simply serve to connect a word to its description.
  • <em>Example: Jeny is simple. </em>
  • Prepositions are like conjunctions in that they serve as connectors. Prepositions, in particular, connect nouns or their pronouns with other parts of the sentence. They are usually placed in front of nouns and describe how something is done, what time it happened, and the position where it happened.
  • Example: Ria went to Jebel Ali for her interview.
  • Pronouns are words used to replace nouns in a sentence so they don't become too repetitive.  <em>Example: Michelle is an incredible musician. She records her music in her own room. </em>
