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>

Notes:

Hemingway was driving an ambulance in Italy not because he had been injured or because he was a doctor, but because he was assisting the Red Cross on the Italian front.

Hemingway first served in World War I and later lived in Paris. He also wrote A Farewell to Arms after the war and drew on his personal experiences to do so. Finally, he retired to Key West.

Hemingway's writing style was anything but commonplace or boring. In fact, it was the lack of wordiness and the creative succintless that made Hemingway's works so popular.

When is it appropriate to break the rule that requires subjects joined by and to use a plural verb

Artist 52 [7]

The conventional rule is to take the plural form of the verb when two nouns are joined by the conjunction 'and'. However, there are exceptions. Only then can you break the rule.

When the two nouns refer to one thing only, then you can use the single form. For example: The president and the CEO joins the meeting today. In this example, the president and CEO apply to one person only. Hence, you use the singular form of the verb.
