Answer:

A. Fragment

Explanation:

A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence. Some fragments are incomplete because they lack either a subject or a verb, or both.

This particular sentence lacks a verb. "the marionettes" is the subject of the independent clause. "Operated by wires above the stage" is a participial phrase modifying the subject, i.e. providing some description about the subject;  "whose features seemed lifelike" is a dependent clause describing the subject.

As we see, there is <u>no verb to clarify the subject</u>. What does the writer want to say about "the marionettes"? What did they do? or What were they? We have a written fragment, a major writing error.

This is a fragment because the sentence cannot stand on its own. It does not contain a compete thought. The reason it does not contain a compete idea is that it has no verb in it.

Tyson has created many general questions to guide his research. What should he do next?
yuradex [85]

Answer:

D. Narrow his focus

Explanation:

In writing a research,a topic has to be selected first. This could be provided by a supervisor or the individual, on a topic he is interested in. After forming a topic, many general questions should be formed. This would provide a wide view from which to assess the topic.

Too many general questions ought to be further narrowed into more specific questions. It is important that the researcher chose a topic on which information could be found easily. This would make it easier for the questions to be easily narrowed and not too broad. He should also avoid open ended questions, that is yes or no questions, so as to make the information more meaningful.
