plains why the colon after "including” should be removed? The colon does not introduce a list of items and is therefore unnecessary. The introductory text in the sentence cannot stand alone. Colons are only used to introduce lists composed of more than three items. Colons are not used to introduce lists of items in sentences.

The correct answer is - the introductory text in the sentence cannot stand alone.


The colon after 'including' should be removed because it is completely unnecessary. The word 'including' acts as a colon of sorts, so using both is redundant. You can either delete the colon and leave the sentence as is, or delete the word 'including' and add a colon, but not both.

Answer:

answer in the explanation. In the future, please take a better photo so that we can see the hole frame. Thanks!

Explanation:

The cool grey sky was alight with obsidian wings. Through the rustle of the mournful trees, a slight whisper could be heard from the small clearing. A collection of ghastly figures, clad in white smocks and masks, crouched there. Amid the dead grass, glass bottles, and cotton wabs, there was an air of secrecy about the group of workers. Nervous glances towards the treeline and the uncomforatble shifts of plasctic coated shoes were evident as they rushed through their work. The crows screamed in unison, almost echoing the wrath of nature towards these self proclaimed "men of science". The wind picked up, howling as they hastened the pace of their sickly blue gloves. The group hurried to collect data and samples as the darkness creeped in around them.
