The correct answer is "D".

Jefferson Davis was an American politician who sided with the Southern Stated during the Civil War, serving as president of the Confederacy from 1861 to 1865. Although he was a slaveholder and shared common interests with other Confederacy leaders, he was reluctant to secession as it is shown in the selected excerpt. Nevertheless, he believed that the States had the right to leave the Union if they ultimately decided to.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

- <u>Sculpture in the memory is knowing one's faith and talents</u>.

Explanation:

Ralph Waldo Emerson, the highly acknowledged philosopher, poet, as well as essayist of America.

Which sentence is correctly punctuated with a colon?
emmasim [6.3K]

The correct answer is A. Hannah Teter has won medals in several Olympic games: 2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver

Explanation:

In grammar, the colon (:) is mostly used to introduce a list or set of elements that explain a previous sentence. This means the colon should be placed right before the elements it introduces and besides this, it can only be included if the previous sentence is independent. According to this, in the sentence "Hannah Teter has won medals in several Olympic games: 2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver" the colon should be placed after the word "games" and before "2003 Aspen" because "2003 Aspen, 2006 Turin, and 2010 Vancouver" is the list of items that explain the Olympic games Hannah Teter participated in, also by placing the colon in this position the first sentence is complete and independent.
