Answer:

A. It affects many.  

D. democracy

Explanation:

The word "epidemic" has the Greek root "dem", which, as you saw in the question above, means "people". This root gives the word the concept of "many people", for this reason, an epidemic is an infection that is affecting many people at the same time and in the same place.

The same root "dem", can be found in the word "democracy", that the word that indicates a region where the government is established according to the will and sovereignty of the people, that is, once again the concept of "many people "can be established.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

kettle

Explanation:

A pronoun is a word that is used to denote a noun to avoid the repetition of the noun. The noun instead of which the pronoun is used is said to be an antecedent.  

In the given excerpt, 'kettle' is the noun. In every new sentence, the noun 'kettle' has been repeated. Instead of the repetition of the noun 'kettle', the pronoun 'it' can be used. For singular noun 'kettle', the pronoun 'it' will be used and for plural noun 'kettles', the pronoun 'they' will be used.
