<span>In a sentence where there are two separate independent clauses, the comma should be placed before the conjunction. The correct answer is therefore c) before the conjunction. There are some instances where the comma will not be needed, for example where both independent clauses are short or mean similar things. However, c) is the correct answer for this question. Hope this helps!</span>

The correct answer is C. before the conjunction.


If there is a conjunction between two independent clauses, then the comma will be placed in front of it. For example: <em>We had a lot of fun at the beach, but I feel tired now. </em>

As you can see, the comma is located in front of the conjunction <em>but. </em>Simply placing a comma between the sentences (without a conjunction) creates a run-on sentence, and that is grammatically incorrect.

OLEGan [10]

Walt Whitman was a poet during the 1800's, who later in America's modern times became popular for his unique style of poetry. Whitman thought that poetry should be spoken in the "language of ordinary men." His use of the vernacular and vocabulary was unusual and unique for poets of his time period. His poems were most often times about nature and humanity. His poems also helped shed light on America's issues as it began to grow as a country. Sadly Walt Whitman wasn't given full credit for his unique and influential style of writing until after he had passed away.

How components of strategic thinking contribute to rational thinking
Rom4ik [11]

Strategic thinking can consist of something as simple as how to buy groceries so that one uses one's weekly budget to determine what to buy and buy food that while healthy is also going to last several meals so o it can involve buying lots of vegetables which are relatively cheap to mix with a little meat and then cook it in the slow cooker overnight so basically it cooks itself. This then can be considered a rational way of buying and cooking groceries to save money, eat healthy and cook easily.
