Answer:
The correct answer for the first sentence is ‘effect’. The first sentence requires a noun word because there is an article ‘a’, which means that there must be a noun word followed by the article. Then, ‘affected’ is the correct answer for the second sentence. The word ‘affected’ means made an influence (active), while the word ‘effected’ means cause something to happen (passive).
Explanation:
In the first sentence, the word ‘profound’ is an adjective, so there goes the noun word ‘effect’ after the adjective one to form a proper noun phrase. Meanwhile, the word ‘affect’ is a verb. For the second sentence, it is easy to differentiate the usage of ‘affect’ and ‘effect’ by pointing out their word class, ‘affect’ is a verb and ‘effect’ is a noun. Therefore, to form a proper sentence, it needs a verb. To make it simple, here is the definition of each word based on each word class:
• Affect (verb) : made an impact, have an effect to
• Affect (noun) : pretend to have or feel (something)
• Effect (verb) : cause (something) to happen; bring about
• Effect (noun) : a change as a consequence or result of an action or other cause
By examining the usage of each word according to the corresponding word class, you can put it into the sentence in a proper form. It means that you have to make sure which word class to put on a sentence either a noun or a verb while using the word ‘effect’ or ‘affect.’ Don’t forget to use a corresponding tense according to the timeline used in the sentence.
