a run-on
A run-on sentence is a sentence that has two or more complete thoughts without proper punctuation. This makes the sentence grammatically incorrect. For example: I have a dog she runs fast. There are two complete ideas, but they aren't punctuated correctly. It's also missing a conjunction. Two join the ideas, it must be changed to: I have a dog, and she runs fast.
A fragment is an incomplete sentence. Most fragments are dependent clauses. For example: Since the dog runs fast. This is a fragment because of the word "since". Since tells you that there should be some follow up information about the dog running fast. Since the dog runs fast, she must always be on a leash.
Traditionally, indigenous comes from the Latin word indigena (indu/endo: in/within + gignere: to beget (to procreate or generate). But here we are simply looking at roots. The root words here are -gen (something produced, and by extension, birth) and -ous (possessing/full of), and that combination is not an option, it seems. HOWEVER, it is not uncommon for suffixes to have more than one meaning, and this is no exception. -ous also means 'having, full of, or characterized by', meaning your answer is the second option, 'the word root “gen” means “birth,” and the suffix “-ous” means “having the quality of something.”'

Explanation:
The purpose of freedom of speech is to allow people to freely discuss and debate their ideas, especially pertaining to matters of public interest and government. In a democracy, it is important for all citizens to be able to hear the viewpoints of others and to express their own ideas. People should be free to communicate facts, observations and opinions that may help others to understand the issues and make decisions.
When people abuse freedom of speech by deliberately distorting facts, or passing off false information as if it were a fact, it undermines our fundamental rights to live in the security and safety that our nation was founded to protect: life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
