gtnhenbr [62]

This question is missing the sentence and the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

The word artificial comes from the Latin prefix art- (skill) and the root fic (to make or cause). Based on word parts and context clues, which meaning BEST fits the word artificial as used in the sentence.

Finally, it would create a reservoir that would become the largest artificial lake in the United States.

A) suitable for a museum

B) very long and wide

C) caused to be skillful

D) made by humans

Answer:

The best meaning for the word artificial in the sentence is:

D) made by humans.

Explanation:

<u>As the explanation reveals, the word "artificial" refers to anything that is made. In other words, it refers to things that do not exist naturally in the world, but that are created. When the sentence speaks of an artificial lake, it means this lake is not a natural one, but one made by humans.</u> We can often see the word artificial being used in relation to food. It is common for processed foods, for instance, to be artificially colored or flavored. That means those foods do not originally have that color or flavor, that they were added by humans.
