Explanation:
<u>Restrictive clauses or phrases are those that modify or transform the meaning of the noun that precedes them tangibly</u> and that are such that without the noun present would make no sense with the sentence. They are usually u<u>sed without any sort of punctuation.</u>
<u>Non restrictive clauses describe the noun they are preceded by but do not tangibly transform it </u>but only add to the overall description of the said noun. Thus,<u> they are used with commas as in the above case.</u>
The correct answer is Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Publications that can stand on their own, like newspapers, are italicized. Smaller pieces, like newspaper articles, are placed within quotation marks. The hyphen is needed because Journal-Constitution is a compound noun.
Explanation:
Proper grammar, proper punctuation, not overusing commas, knowing how to disperse periods, an understanding of vocabulary etc.
