pychu [463]3 years ago

Deductive reasoning is the process os using previously accepted statements to draw a conclusion.

I'll show you an example.

A detective determines that <em>the person who committed the crime is a relative of the victim and walks with a limp. Since the mayor of the town is the only person who is a relative of the victim and walks with a limp</em>, the detective uses deductive reasoning to determine that the mayor of the town must have committed the crime.

The previously accepted statements are in italics and the conclusion is shown in bold.

Which one of the following sentences contains an incorrect usage of the singular possessive?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

A singular possessive noun is created by adding apostrophe (') to the noun.  This is done so in order to show the possession of the noun.

But to use apostrophe to create singular noun possession there are certain grammatical rules.

If a singular noun is ending with 's' then apostrophe can be added after with the word without adding 's' or with adding 's'. Both ways are correct.

In option A, there is no possession shown. And the correct usage of singular possession for option A would be "Mary was dominant among Jesus' disciples.

So, the correct answer is Option A.
