Sentence fragments lack a subject and verb, and do not express a complete thought. Thus, the sentence fragments that should be joined to other sentences as independent clauses to express a complete thought are:

  • The same way that people are addicted to drugs or gambling.
  • Twice the amount of time spent by most players.
  • Which has more than one hundred clinics to treat video-game addiction.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas is only 0.04% by volume of the atmosphere. So, it is found in trace. It is used by plants and some cyanobacteria and algae in photosynthesis for preparing food in the presence of light/

Nitrogen (N2) gas is about 78%  by volume of the atmosphere, and hence it is the most abundant gas in the atmosphere. It is a major component of proteins (as amino acids) and DNA (as nucleic acids).

Oxygen gas (O2) is about 28% by volume of the atmosphere; hence it is second most abundant gas after nitrogen gas.

Aerobic cellular respiration is a process in which food particles are broken down by oxygen for the release of energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)

The title Twelfth Night is a reference to the Feast of the Epiphany, celebrated twelve days after Christmas. It was an occasion
taurus [48]

In Twelfth Night, there is an inversion of the social order during Shakespeare's time. The storm and shipwreck that plants Viola on the shores of Illyria initiates the events in which the social order is turned upside down.

One example is the inversion of gender roles. Viola has to cross-dress as a man, Cesario, to get employment in Orsino's court. At the same time, Olivia becomes the head of her household after her brother's demise. Her position is an exception to the social norm during the Elizabethan era.

The roles of the social classes also get inverted in Twelfth Night. The characters belonging to the lower rungs of society indulge in impersonating those of higher social standing. Maria's forging of a love letter from Olivia to Malvolio is an example. Malvolio's love for Olivia becomes a source of laughter largely because he is of a lower social standing than Olivia and would never have been considered good enough to marry her. Feste, the clown, also adds to the feeling of revelry, though he isn't always being silly. As a clown, he has he rare privilege of poking fun at those of a higher social standing than himself
