<em>Tom found the memory box, which was for the baby, on the dusty closet shelf.</em>

<em />

<em>The sentence contains a squinting modifier, which is a kind of misplaced modifier. It creates ambiguity and confusion because it is not clear which item it modifies: whether the previous or the following phrase. In the sentence, the squinting modifier for the baby can refer to the memory box for the baby or for the baby on the dusty closet shelf, making two possible different meanings for the same sentence.</em>

<h2><em> HOPE IT HELPS (◕‿◕✿) </em></h2><h2><em> SMILE!!</em></h2>

What were two effects of the Louisiana purchase on the untied states?

aliina [53]

The first impact is that it doubled the size of the country. Our borders went from the Atlantic Ocean to the Rocky Mountains, north to Canada, and south to the boundary with Spanish Florida. It helped to secure the port of New Orleans and the use of the Mississippi river for us. When Spain cut off our right to deposit goods at New Orleans and limited our use of the Mississippi River, this presented a serious challenge for us. Western farmers needed to store goods at New Orleans and ship products on the Mississippi River. It is what prompted our original offer to France, once France got control of this region from Spain.

The Louisiana Purchase also made it clear to other countries that we would try to find ways to peacefully solve our problems. Instead of fighting Spain, and then France, over the use of the Mississippi River and the port of New Orleans, we tried to find a peaceful solution to resolve an issue. It also showed our own people, especially the farmers who lived in the west, that our government did care about them also and would work to meet their needs. This helped western farmers remain loyal to our country.

Trava [24]

It emphasizes the savagery of the assassins’ actions toward Caesar. This is how Shakespeare’s use of the word slaughter rather than murder affect the meaning of the passage.

The word slaughter shows much more "rude" effect than the word murder. So, Shakespeare used this slaughter word so that readers can feel the brutality with which Caesar was killed.

Not only because he was stabbed several times, but also because one of the people who killed him was Brutus and also his death was agreed by a plot, not by something that Caesar has done.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C -It emphasizes the savagery of the assassins' actions toward Caesar.
