The essential appositive in the sentence "astronomer maia mitchell discovered a comet in 1847 and went on to become the first professional female astronomer in the united states," is Maia Mitchel. The last option is correct.
An appositive consists on a noun or noun phrase that renames another noun right beside it. The appositive can be a short or long combination of words.
In this particular case, the words Maia Mitchell which is a proper noun is renaming the noun astronomer, which is right before it and constitutes the subject of the sentence.
She said she had wanted to burn the house down herself if it wouldn't have landed her in jail.
Dear Gr 12 learner, I bet you've heard the phrase "with great powers comes great responsibilities." This phrase is very true, especially at that moment in life that you are living in, where your greatest power is freedom. My advice to you is that you take advantage of this moment and use the freedom that is offered to you, but don't forget the responsibility that comes with it and that responsibility is to maintain responsible behavior.
Freedom is a privilege held with responsibility. For this, it is important that you understand that there are situations that are not appropriate, beneficial and progressive which you should not get involved in and act responsibly to avoid them, thus maintaining not only your freedom, but your moral and physical integrity , as well as your safety.
Freedom with responsibility is not difficult, it will be necessary for you to stay focused on good things, in addition to maintaining the trust of those who allow you to have access to freedom. In that case, I need to issue a second piece of advice, which is to always ask older and more experienced people about what behavior to adopt in situations that you think might lead you to irresponsibility.
I believe that with this advice you will make very good and uplifting decisions.
