The correct answer is C. If the cat meows one more time – I know he will – I am going to have to get the treats.

Explanation:

In grammar, one of the main uses of em dashes (–) is to replace parentheses or commas to introduce further explanations, extra information, examples or comments, usually by enclosing the information in em dashes. In the case of the sentence "If the cat meows one more time I know he will I am going to have to get the treats" the information that is a comment or remark is "I known he will" because this is thought of the speaker and does not grammatically belong to the sentence and therefore should be enclosed using em-dashes. This means the sentence that shows the correct use of em dashes is " If the cat meows one more time – I know he will – I am going to have to get the treats".

Answer: Fragment (missing predicate)

Explanation:

A sentence fragment is a sentence that is missing either its subject or its main verb.

The answer to this one is D. This is because the sentence does not have a predicate. A sentence's predicate describes what is happening. A sentence is considered a fragment if it lacks a predicate. Consider the following example:

<em>My cousin Fred.</em>

We know Fred is the subject of this phrase, but we have no idea what he's up to. As a result, this isn't a complete sentence.

As "three fish and a turtle" has 2 subjects, the three fish and the turtle, but no predicate to show what they're doing, the sentence is a fragment missing a predicate.
