The correct answer is B. Dr. Mitchell is my family​ physician, and his office is near my home.

Explanation:

A compound sentence is a type of sentence that includes two or more independent clauses which are units with complete meaning and that do not need other sentences. In terms of punctuation, these sentences can be linked using a semicolon between the independent clauses or a comma followed by a coordinating conjunction (and, or, so, but). This implies, the sentence that is a compound sentence and has correct punctuation is option B because this contains two independent clauses "Dr. Mitchell is my family​ physician" and "his office is near my home" and these have been linked using a colon followed by one of the coordinating conjunctions which is correct. Also, other options are not compound sentences or do not use punctuation correctly.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

B.) Who

Explanation:

The curator of the art museum, who gave a speech last night, will be attending tonight's ceremonies, as well.

The term "that" is a less formal way to put it. And using the term "which" does not make grammatical sense, so your best choice would be "who".

Freewriting is an exercise in which you
Burka [1]

Answer:

C. Write whatever your thoughts are in no particular order.

Explanation:

Free- writing is the manner or form of writing where the writer or author is free to write whatever he/ she wants. The topic, pattern, or anything related t the work is all dependent on the author and is not dictated by any form of guidelines or set of rules to be followed. The freedom to write his thoughts, in whatever pattern and order he wants, and even maybe dealing with personal or fictional stories, are all part of what the free writing entails. The very word "free writing" is proof of the form of writing that it is about. Everything is all up to the one who is to write the work, with no form or rule to be followed or adopted.
