Read the sentence. After traversing the trail to the mountain summit, Susanna was famished and in dire need of sustenance food b

efore she could venture back down. What is wrong with how the word sustenance is used in the sentence? Sustenance is used as an adjective, but it is a verb.

Sustenance should have a hyphen after it to connect it to the word food.

Answer:

<em>C: Sustenance is used as an adjective, but it is a noun.</em>

Explanation:

 The word "sustenance" in the sentence is a <em>noun</em> that is being used as an <em>adjective</em>  for another noun "food". Adjectives have the function of modifying a noun in a sentence, but in the English language <em>it is also possible to use a</em> <em>noun with the f</em><em>unction of an adjective </em>, in the position of an adjective before a noun.
