<span>The correct answer is C. Swimming is great cardiovascular exercise.

In this sentence, "swimming" is a gerund. It functions as the subject of the sentence. In the first option, "swimming" is part of the verb phrase ("were swimming"). In the second option, "swimming" is part of the adjective and describes the team. Only in the final sentence does "swimming" function as a noun, or a gerund.</span>

Answer:

Swimming is great cardiovascular exercise.

Explanation:

A gerund is a verb that ends with the <em>ing</em> form (or the present participle form), however, it does not act as a verb but as a noun. In the sentence "Swimming" is acting as a noun (It refers to the skill of swimming or the sport of swimming itself) and it's the subject as well as it is what is being dealt with in the sentence.

In what ways was Elizabethan culture similar to modern American culture?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer: Similarities are reflected in many life situations.

Explanation:

When it comes to similarities from the Elizabethan era to this day, it is possible to find specific similar points. In the modern age, there were civil rights movements, in the Elizabethan period, mainly boys and girls from the upper social classes were educated, so that equality was reflected in that period. The Elizabethan era is characterized by the respect of parents and their blessing for specific actions, which is still happening today. Over the centuries, the educational process has respected what the authorities in the field of education put forward as fact. In the Elizabethan era, some theories came to the fore, and even today, students often independently examine particular views of educational authorities. We find similarities in the quality of life and nutrition. Even today, as in that period, the richer have been eating better and have a better quality of life than the poor.
