A) (Sentence 2) The freighter Florentine, 320 miles northeast of the Hawaiian Island of Hilo was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.

This is the sentence that has a missing necessary comma. Another comma should have been placed after the word Hilo and before was.

The commas in this sentence enclosed nonessential information.

<span>The freighter Florentine, 320 miles northeast of the Hawaiian Island of Hilo, was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.
</span>
Nonessential information means that if the said phrase is deleted from the sentence, then the sentence would still convey the same message.
<span>
The freighter Florentine was lumbering along at about 15 knots when a garbled message came in over the radio.</span>

Why were students better able than adults to organize and protest
BaLLatris [955]
The students who marched at Selma were better prepared in a sense that unlike their adult counterparts, they were already briefed on what to expect when this march began.  Youth was also their biggest asset as they were energized and determined to promote the civil rights movement in the South. Even before the march, they were already veterans of other movements for equal rights.
