D. Dad
In this sentence, dad is being used as a name or proper noun. It needs to be capitalized.
I don't really know. I've done this since I was 4 when I used to get nose bleeds that lasted a good while. I got them until I was an adult when a specialist cotterized(sp?) a blood vessel in my nose. I got them even then, but not as often and not as persistently.
I also put ice cold ice packs on my forehead.
I suppose you are swallowing blood that has been exposed to the air. That means it is carrying oxygenated blood. Other than being prohibited in the Bible, I don't see anything really wrong with it. When you look it up, it says that it can bring about vomiting. That never happened to me.
You can take "in fact" out of the sentence to help with determine what type of sentence it is because it's a prepositional phrase. This leaves us with "Only a small percentage of Southern Africa is desert" which is a simple sentence.
