Tell me which highlighted sentence is independent

English
2 answers:
Naddika [18.5K]3 years ago

Answer:

"Today's medical students owe a debt to Dr. Henry Gray"

Explanation:

An independent clause is a part of a sentence that can stand alone and still be a complete sentence. A complete sentence has a subject and a verb.

In the problem, the independent clause is "Today's medical students owe a debt to Dr. Henry Gray". This is because we can take this section of the sentence out of the original and it can still make sense by itself since it has the subject ("students") and the verb ("owe").

The other part of the sentence is a dependent clause because it cannot stand alone: while it does have a verb "is", it does not have a main subject to go with that verb.

Hope this helps!

1. The Pope thinks Faustus is a ghost.
Faustus and Mephastophilis have become invisible and they came to the Pope to play tricks on him. They started flinging the dishes around the room and the Pope and his friars got scared and though there is a ghost in the room, which is why he started crossing himself.

2. Faustus tells the Pope to stop crossing himself because the sign of the cross has no effect on Faustus.
Faustus realizes that religion is a fraud, especially when he didn't see God or knows of his existence, whereas the Devil is next to him playing tricks on mortals and taking their souls. He isn't frightened or offended by those symbols - he just knows that they are future and have no effect whatsoever.

Which part of this excerpt from Voltaire’s Candide best develops the theme that different people find value in different things?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Excerpt from Voltaire's Candide

Theme: Different people find value in different things.

The theme above is best developed by the request of Earth made by Candide and Cacambo.  The king regards this "Earth" as "yellow clay."

Explanation:

It can be inferred from the excerpt that the European visitors know the value of "the earth of the country", which is for them like a productive mother that gives birth to innumerable children.  But for the king and his countrymen, the earth was just mere "yellow clay," sterile and without value.

What one undervalues, another values immensely because there is a gap in their knowledge.  Abundance of some resources fools those who dwell on top  of the resources.  Whereas for those who understand the rarity of the resources, they experience scarcity of it because the demand for the resources would outstrip the supply.  This is paradoxical.

Which kind of phrase are the underlined words in the sentence? Shel Silverstein, a popular author of children's books, was born
sattari [20]
You have to tell us which words are underlined, but I have a feeling the words were "a popular author of children's books." which is an appositive. Author is the same thing as Shel Silverstein.
