I believe that the answer is active characterization because all of the characters are doing something. For example, the parents cleaned up the kitchen while the children are playing a game.
Answer
The word is "constructing".
Explanation:
A prefix can be defined as a letter or group of letters added to the beginning of a word with the intention of forming a different word. <u>The prefix de- is added to a word to convey removal, separation, negation, reversal, etc. On the other hand, the prefix con- conveys association and togetherness.</u> As was stated in the question, they are nearly opposite meanings. Therefore, if we think of the word <u>"destroying" and its meaning - demolishing, knocking down, putting an end to the existence of something -, the word that uses the prefix con- and that means the opposite is "constructing". To construct means to put up, to build, to set up, or to establish something.</u>
a. three major supporting details.
There are three supporting details for the main idea on the theories to explain why people yawn. Each of the supporting details contains a key word or phrase to indicate that they indeed are a main supporting detail. These key words and phrases are "One explanation is...", "A second theory...", and "Yet another explanation...". These all show the supporting detail is contained in the sentence. The last sentences just build and connect to information that has already been introduced.
