Answer: B. a star at the center of our solar system

Explanation:

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that is placed beside another noun or noun phrase with the intention of renaming it. In order words, the appositive gives further information about the noun or phrase it changes. Appositives usually come between two commas, unless they are restrictive.

In the structure we are analyzing here, the appositive is the sentence "a star at the center of our solar system". Not only it comes between two commas, but it also has the intention of explaining what the sun is by giving further information about it.

Find the error in possessive construction in the following sentence. The sentence contains one error. Write the correct sentence
Triss [41]
The error in the possessive construction is that, instead of passenger's, it should be "passengers'". The apostrophe should be after the letter "s" because the noun is in the plural form. The correct sentence would be "Passengers' concerns about cell phone use on planes are justified."
