Answer:

The answer: The pronoun "his" should be replaced by "its."

Explanation:

In the sentence, "The dog ran fast until his owner stopped it," "his" should replaced by "its" <u>since it should refer to the dog</u> and not the owner.

<u>Possessive Pronoun-</u> this refers to things or objects that show ownership. Examples are: <em>mine, ours, yours, his, hers, its and ours, etc. </em>

The possessive pronoun "its" is used to show ownership of a non-human subject, So, this could refer to things or animals and other living things. This includes the dog.

A better sentence would be: "The dog ran fast until its owner stopped it."

[ANSWER FOR BRAINLEST]
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

A) Summarize the author's ideas, give credit where due.

Explanation:

When writing an essay it's important that you give credit to the author of your cited source, for example (Timothy, 20). If you don't its considered plagiarism since you copied it directly but didn't announce that you did.

You could- B) Avoid discussing the author's ideas. But that wouldn't get you any information.

You could- C) Quote the author directly, but don't tell where the quote came from. But you'd be stealing information aka plagiarism.

You could- D) Discuss the author's ideas, but phrase them differently while refraining from mentioning the author by name. But your pretty much repeating what they said, which is still plagiarism considering your teacher may or may not ask for the source and look through it.

A allows you to summarize the author's ideas and when due, cite your evidence if directly quoting.
