Forward also means into view or consideration, defined by the dictionary.Then pretentious , which has pre as prefix, means creating an image of oneself , that is ostentatious.However, this outter appearance of great worth, is deceptive as the claim to disctinction does not exist.

blondinia [14]

Robert Hooke has had a great impact in the world of science. His discoveries and even inventions are still used to this day. He's someone that greatly inspires me because of his determination. Something that caught my attention and intrigued me is his studies of the structure of snowflakes and his cork studies. He was also the one that first used the word cell while he studied and looked into corks. If I could meet Robert Hooke, I would say thank you for contributing to science and ask if he ever thought of evolution.

Answer: The correct answer is:

  • <u>Our class is learning about plant cells</u><u>,</u><u> and Reza’s class is learning about animal cells.</u>

Explanation: When a conjunction joins two independent clauses, a comma is needed before the conjunction. In the answer chosen, we can observe that it uses a comma before the conjunction ''and,'' which is linking two independent clauses. This is the correct form to use the comma.
