Actually, the independent clause in this sentence is 'The treasures that archaeologists found gave clues'. The other sentence is the subordinate, because it further explains what the clues are. You cannot start the sentence the way this one is written 'that king tut's tomb might exist in the valley of the kings in egypt' because it is incomplete.

The independent clause in the sentence is the clause that can work alone as a simple sentence. In this case it is "King Tut's tomb might exist in the Valley of the Kings of Egypt." The first half of the sentence, "The treasures that archeologists found gave clues that", does help the sentence but the latter half makes sense on its own.

Which of the following types of edits to direct quotes is inappropriate? (5 points)
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The type of edit to direct quotes which is inappropriate is the following one:

Correcting errors in the quote.

Explanation:

If it is a direct quote, it is supposed to be as genuine as possible, that is, the essence of what was said by that particular person must be kept, and that includes not only what was said, but also how it was said- errors and all.

Eg: Let's say you want to quote Joker (played by Heath Ledger in "The Dark Knight") and you write:

As said by Joker: "Why <u>are you</u> so serious?"

In the example above, the essence of the original quote was lost, since the omission of verb and subject (Why so serious?) was what gave the classic quote its mysterious charm. So, it is best to keep it the way it actually is:

As said by Joker: "Why so serious?"

Read the following reason that has been given to justify slavery and answer the question.
professor190 [17]

Answer: We are not initially responsible for the capture of slaves taken as a result of war.

The first statement disputes the claim because it argues that captives from wars might still be taken in an unjust way. The third statement similarly disputes the claim by arguing that not all captives are victims of combat, but some were kidnapped despite their peaceful existence. Finally, the last statement argues that even if captives were taken lawfully in those wars, it would still be a great kindness to help them.

The second statement, on the other hand, supports the claim. It argues that the capture of slaves is not our responsibility, as they have been lawfully taken during war.

Identify the errors in the given paragraph and rewrite the paragraph by adding appropriate Punctuation marks.

Have you ever noticed that the celebration of Easter is not on the same date every year? It can be anywhere between the 22nd of March and 25th of April. The date is set within a week of the first full moon, after 21st of March. It is believed that the holiday was named after the ancient Germanic goddess, Eastre. She was the symbol of the rabbit and the egg; both of these symbols are linked to rebirth and new life.

I noticed there were a few other errors so I also fixed that as well ^^

I hope this helps
