Answer:

D

Explanation:

A participle is a verb that acts as an adjective. Dark, billowing clouds often are signs of a bad storm on the way is the ONLY sentence that has an adjective in it. Hope this helps!

Answer:

D) Dark, billowing clouds often are signs of a bad storm on the way.

Explanation:

The present particle refers to an adjective which derives from a verb and contains the ending <em>-ing</em>. As a result, the adjective <em>billowing</em>, which means filled with air and distended outward, is in the present participle form.

The rest of the options are incorrect because the<em> -ing</em> forms are gerunds and gerund phrases, which function as nouns and objects, not adjectives.

Which development most aided explorers in their ability to sail the oceans to discover the New World during the Age of Discovery
jeyben [28]

I would go with <em>b. more efficient ships</em>.

Mechanical motors were very helpful, they helped the ship move, but I don't believe they were the development that aided the explorers the most.

Sure, they could've made maps, but what was the point? If they already knew the layout of the oceans and lands, then they could've easily traveled wherever they pleased without trouble. This also applies for the spherical globe.

A greater supply of efficient ships helped sailers get by tougher tides and harsher weathers. Ships were produced to be better, stronger, and more durable. They were able to handle more weight and carry more passengers.

Furthermore, the production of efficient ships were the development that most aided explorers in their ability to sail the oceans to discover the New World during the Age of Discovery.

(This is all from my logic. I've not read your lesson, therefore, I do not truly know the answer other than using my common sense.)

Hopefully, this helps.
