1.-The prepositional Phrase is A). Prepositional Phrases can act as adjectives or adverbs.

2.-The correct answer is D) to curse or jinks. Because is like to use inadequete words.

3.- The right answer is C) The teacher "referenced" the book during today's lecture. It means the teacher gave references of the book. In the first example it should be: The heightened emotion "affected" me, not effected me. In letter B) it should be the lotion had an immediate "effect" on the sunburn, not affect. It didn't show affection for the sunburn. And in letter D) it should be the orange throw pillow "complemented" the other warm colors in the room, not complimented. It didn't give compliments.

Define the following concept and give one examples of a religion that falls into category. a)Monotheism b) pantheism c) polythei
Firlakuza [10]

Explanation:

Monotheism, belief in the existence of one god, or in the oneness of God. As such, it is distinguished from polytheism, the belief in the existence of many gods, from atheism, the belief that there is no god, and from agnosticism, the belief that the existence or nonexistence of a god or of gods is unknown or unknowable. Monotheism characterizes the traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and elements of the belief are discernible in numerous other religions.

Polytheism, the belief in many gods. Polytheism characterizes virtually all religions other than Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, which share a common tradition of monotheism, the belief in one God.

Pantheism is the belief that reality is identical with divinity,[1] or that all-things compose an all-encompassing, immanent god.[2] Pantheist belief does not recognize a distinct personal god,[3] anthropomorphic or otherwise, but instead characterizes a broad range of doctrines differing in forms of relationships between reality and divinity.[4] Pantheistic concepts date back thousands of years, and pantheistic elements have been identified in various religious traditions. The term pantheism was coined by mathematician Joseph Raphson in 1697[5][6] and has since been used to describe the beliefs of a variety of people and organizations.
