A company making profit from genetically modified potatoes would probably only say good things about genetically modified profits, so they'd likely be biased.

A book written by a freelance author whose previous books were about other scientific issues would likely have the book about genetic modification in general, rather than the historical development of it, so his book wouldn't be the best source to use.

A book written by a woman who believes she got sick from genetically modified products would probably be biased against genetically modified products, so her book wouldn't be the best source.

A book written by a scientist who helped develop the technology to genetically modify vegetables would probably know a lot about the historical development, considering he helped develop it. This is the best source to use in my opinion.

A book written by a freelance author (B) would be the most accurate and accurate. Because a freelance author doesn't work for either side of the vegetable issue and works independently and is thus unbiased.

Select the correct answer. Which phrase is a noun phrase in the given paragraph? Since childhood Jess has been interested in the
deff fn [24]

Answer:  The correct answer is:  [B]:  " the art of story telling. "

_____________________________  

Explanation:

_____________________________

The given excerpt is as follows:

      Since childhood, Jess has been interested in the art of storytelling. She would entertain her little brother and sister with tales of magic and adventure. She started writing stories almost as soon as she learned the alphabet. To write her stories, Jess relies on her colorful imagination.

___________________________

Let us consider the other answer choices:

Choice  [A]: "has been interested" ;

Choice  [C]:  "would entertain" ;

Choice  [D]:  "started writing" ;

     are all "<u>verb phrases</u>" ; that do not contain any "noun"— or subject or object—nor do they function as a "noun" or "subject" in any way.

Choice  [E]:  "as soon as" ;  is an "adverb phrase" that describes "when" something is about to happen —(albeit not very specific about "when"—in this particular explanation.

____________________________

Choice:  [B]:  " the art of storytelling" ;  is the correct answer.

____________________________

This is clearly a "noun phrase" ; since it begins with a noun [athough this is not required to be a "noun phrase"]—and is modified by a "gerund" [i.e. modified by further explanation—by using the words "of storytelling"] ; in which the "gerund" is "storytelling".  Gerunds are nouns formed from "verb forms ending in -ing" —which <u>function as a noun</u>.

___________________________

Hope this is helpful to you!  

   Best wishes to you in your academic endeavors—and within the

"Brainly" community!

Match the italicized subordinating conjunction to the relationship it demonstrates. 1. I went back to the dealer where I bought
nikklg [1K]

The answer is:

  1. <u>where</u>: Place.
  2. <u>as soon as</u>: Time.
  3. <u>because</u>: Reason.
  4. <u>If</u>: Condition.
  5. <u>so (that)</u>: Purpose.
  6. <u>than</u>: Comparison.

Subordinating conjunctions join two clauses, a main one (or independent clause, which can stand on its own) and a subordinate clause (or dependent, which does not indicate a complete thought on its own). They also provide a trasition between the two clauses in order to express time, place, or cause and effect.
