Answer:
C). Next to the noun it describes.
Explanation:
<u>A misplaced modifier is described as the formatting or structural error in which a word or clause is separated or isolated from the noun or pronoun it intends to describe/modify and rather describe an inadvertent word</u> that creates an ambiguous and misleading effect in the sentence.
Thus, such formatting error creates confusion due to the incorrect placement of the participial phrase(that functions to modify a noun or pronoun in the sentence). Therefore, in order to rectify this error of misplaced modifier and avoid such confusion, the participial phrase must be placed 'next to the noun it describes' so that it clarifies which noun or pronoun is being modified by the participial phrase in the sentence. Hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
The answer to your question would be sentence D.
Explanation:
The best way to combine the independent and dependent clause to make it a complex sentence is as shown in sentence D. A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. An independent clause, as opposed to a dependent one, can stand alone as a sentence as it represents a complete thought (see 1). (1) is not an independent clause as it fails to stand alone as a complete sentence, it depends on the main (dependent) clause to complete its meaning (see 2).
