Identify the compound noun in the following sentence.

English
1 answer:
dlinn [17]3 years ago

The compound noun in the sentence is A. life cycles.

<u>A compound noun is a word formed by two or more words</u>. The first one generally indicates the type of object/person; in other words, it classifies the object or person presented in the second word. Furthermore, compound nouns have a different meaning than the meaning of the two words taken separately.  

In this sentence,<u> "life cycles" is a compound noun because it has been formed with the words "life" and "cycles", which are also two nouns.</u> "Life", in this case, is indicating the kind of cycle that the sentence is referring to. In that way,<u> the compound noun "life cycles", defined as the series of stages that a living organism goes through during its whole life, does not have the same meaning than the words "life" and "cycles" taken alone</u>.

25. The incorrectly punctuated sentence is the third option. This is because the comma is unnecessary and chops up the sentence. You should only put a comma before a conjunction (words like and, but, or) when there is a list (like in the last option) or when the words following the conjunction include a noun and verb (like the second option).

26. The correctly punctuated sentence is the second option. With dates specifically, there will always be a comma between the day and year (canceling out the first and third options), and if the sentence continues after the year, then there needs to be a comma after the year (which cancels out the last option).
