Answer:

parentheses

Explanation:

Parenthetical expressions are words, phrases or clauses which are inserted within another phrase. The sentence or clause is complete without parenthetical expressions. Parenthetical expressions are inserted by punctuation marks such as commas, round brackets (parentheses), and dashes.

Dashes are used to emphasize interruptions while parentheses are used to set off and de-emphasize interruptions.
