<span>The main character who must struggle against opposing forces is called the protagonist. The protagonist is the main character in a work of literature - for example, Dorian Gray in "The Picture of Dorian Gray," or Harry Potter in his novels, or Frodo Baggins in "The Lord of the Rings." A hero doesn't necessarily have to be a protagonist - it can be any character in a novel. A villain is a bad guy - an antagonist, and is the opposite of a protagonist.</span>
        
                    
             
        
        
        
First, you find the simple subject and simple predicate. 
If the '-ing' form of the verb is not part of the simple predicate, then determine how it is used in the sentence. If it's in a noun position, then it's a gerund. If it is used as an adjective, then it will be a participle. 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
<u>Answer</u>:
Political policies are indirectly a product of the public opinion. Any democracy elects the nominees as a representative who would cater to their needs and who work for a better and more developed society and living conditions. The political parties are there to formulate and execute public policies that would govern the people and the country itself. The public opinion is the one ingredient that is crucial to shape these policies. For instance, an educational policy will highly depend on the present need and the condition of the education system, the analysis of which would be closer to the reality only if based on public opinion. And hence<em> political policies are shaped by popular opinions.</em>
