The correct answer is D. Preposition.

This is because a preposition is used to show where something is located and this is what "in" does.

Answer:

D. Preposition  

Explanation:

Preposition is used in a sentence to join nouns, pronouns, or phrases to a verb or an adjective.  

The word Preposition is derived from Latin verb praeponere, prae meaning "before", and ponere "to place". So, basically preposition means to place (a word) before a noun or pronoun to show the relationship of the word with the next word.  

Further Explanation:

1. Can end a sentence with a preposition:

The rule of never ending a sentence with preposition was basically founded in Latin grammar.  

So, if a sentence does make sense and not create a confusion, preposition at the end of the sentence can be used.  

2.  Use objective case properly:  

This means that when you are using words like I, We, she, They, it is changed to me, us, her and them.

Example: This gift is from my wife and I(is wrong).

This gift is from me and my wife (is right).

Why does Creon order Antigone to be killed?
klemol [59]

Answer:

She disobeyed his command and buried her brother.

Explanation:

As the text explains, “To bury the dead was a most sacred duty, not only to bury one's own, but any stranger one might come upon. But this duty, Creon's proclamation said, was changed in the cause of Polyneices to a crime. He who buried him would be put to death.” When Creon learns that Antigone has defied his order, he has her killed.
