1) Earth's crust is made up of relatively rigid plates that ride atop Earth's hot, semiliquid mantle. (2) The plates are called

tectonic because they're in constant motion. (3) They can move because Earth's mantle is a very hot and semiliquid fluid called magma. (4) Volcanoes are a result of magma rising up or erupting through a plate, particularly where plate boundaries are moving against each other. (5) Also, when plates slide against each other, causing friction along adjacent plate boundaries, earthquakes frequently occur. (6) Therefore, we often find volcanoes and earthquakes along plate boundaries. (7) Plates may also collide. (8) When that happens, mountain ranges are formed. (9) For example, the collision of the plate carrying the Indian subcontinent created the Himalayan Mountains when it collided with the Asian plate.

Help please!!!! Proofread this excerpt from a review of the film The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Which sentence contains punctu
Alona [7]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure the punctuation error is in the third sentence;

<em>'This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist; Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly.'</em>

Just after the word 'protagonist', the author uses a semi-colon (;). A semi-colon is used to link two separate clauses that have similar ideas together. It turns two clauses into one.

In this situation, the semi-colon is not doing that, because that would imply that if we were to separate the "two clauses", it would look like this:

<em>"This struggle plays out chiefly through the protagonist. Charlie, who anchors the film brilliantly." </em>

This wouldn't make sense. Instead of a semi-colon, the author should've used a comma!
