The answer C correctly uses possessive form and is the right answer. It's not A because there is only one George so the apostrophe is in the wrong place. In B, there's not even an apostrophe and it's not clear as to whether there is only one cousin or two or more cousins. In answer D, here should not be an apostrophe for develops.

Answer:

C. The perspective because of the child's young age does not hinder his admiration.

Explanation:

This is the only sentence that correctly uses the possessive form. In this example, the author uses the apostrophe and the "s" with a single noun. This is the correct usage. The other sentences, if they were correct, would read:

A. George's...

B. cousins'....

D. develops

What ultimately motivates brutus to join the conspiracy
coldgirl [10]

Republican by nature, Brutus never tried to hide his political convictions. Married to Cato's daughter, his cousin sister Porcia, he wrote a text extolling the qualities of his deceased father-in-law. Cesar was very fond of him and respected his opinions very much. However, Brutus, like many other senators, was not satisfied with the state of the Republic. Cesar had been appointed perpetual dictator and had passed several laws that concentrated power in his hands. It was rumored that only the crown was missing to match any king. The final period of the monarchy in Rome was a bad memory. The Romans had replaced royalty with the Republic and the more traditional did not want a return to such a system. Brutus was finally motivated to join the conspiracy by anonymous letters sent to him in which Rome asked for help. Brutus started a conspiracy against César along with his brother-in-law and friend Gaius Cassius Longinus and other senators. In the Ides of March (March 15, 44 BC), a group of senators, including Brutus, murdered César in the theater of Pompey.
