B, C, and D all contain gerunds (causing, negotiating, painting). However, the only choice that contains the gerund acting as a subject is C (negotiating)

The correct answer is C. Although, negotiating for Jason Wilkins is a profession, for Emily Dane, it is skill she must learn.

Explanation:

A gerund is a word that ends in -ing and acts a subject rather than as a verb. For example in "Surfing is funny" the word "surfing" is an -ing verb because it describes an activity. Additionally, gerunds can be identified because due they are placed before the main verb and are the entities of the action. Sentence C contains a gerund because, in this, the word "negotiating" acts as the subject of the sentence "negotiating for Jason Wilkins is a profession". "Negotiating" is the subject because it precedes the main verb "is" and it is the agent of this action or state.

Which site would be the most reliable for information?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

A site which includes external links to reputable sources

Explanation:

A site with too little text may be trying to avoid the point, or perhaps they really don't know that much. A site with only a few sources listed may be unreliable since they could've just made up what they wrote with no evidence. A site with reputable sources would be the answer since a reputable source would not be indeed reputable without the validations of the people.
