Answer:

3. Most people eat cereal, it's healthy is an example of a run-on sentence.

Explanation:

<u>Run-on sentences</u> occur when two or more independent clauses are not connected properly. A common type of <u>run-on sentence</u> is the one resulting from a <em>comma splice</em>, where the author failed to use a transitional expression and used just a comma to join two independent clauses -a clause that contains a subject and a predicate and can stand alone as a sentence. This is the case of sentence 3.

Run-on sentences are made when two sentences are put together without correct punctuation. Although, #1 is kind of redundant it's not a run-on sentence. #2 complete sentence. #3 Two sentences that could have been separated by other means instead of a comma. #4 Correct punctuation. When you have a subordinate clause, you use a comma. 

With that being said, which do you think is a run-on sentences?

Is this a run-on sentence?
bekas [8.4K]
<h3>Answer: No, it is not a run-on sentence</h3>

This is one full thought that doesn't run on for too long. The "overcome with joy" portion is the dependent clause that needs the other part "Mrs. Monroe told her husband the exciting news about her promotion" which is the independent clause. The independent clause could be its own sentence without the dependent clause, but not the other way around.
