Ow can the two independent clauses below be combined to form a correct complete sentence? Check all that apply. Jonas has homewo
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The correct options are:

A) Jonas has homework. It isn't finished. and

D) Jonas has homework, it isn't finished.

Explanation:

In all the correct instance, the sentence is constructed such that there are still two independent clauses.

In A above, the clauses are clearly identified and so is the point of their separation.

The same is true for D.

In B, C, and E the sentences are no longer independent.

In F, the demarcation between two sentences by the semicolon is evident however the second half of the sentence is no longer dependent as it is missing the pronoun "it".

Cheers!

Which is not true of quotations? They do not have to combine with an introduction to make a complete sentence. They have to comb
kirill [66]

The correct answer is, "They do not have to combine with an introduction to make a complete sentence."

Quotations cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. They have to be combined with some sort of introduction. Using a quote without an introduction causes the writing to sound disjointed to the reader.
