A "run home" and "eat dinner" are parallel

Answer:

The sentence that shows an example of parallel verbs is sentence A.

Explanation:

Sentence A shows an example of parallel verbs because the verbs taken by "had" are both in the infinitive tense (had to run home and eat dinner).  In "Jim had to run home and dinner was ready" (B), the subject of the sentence is the NP Jim and the predicate is "had to run home and dinner was ready". This sentence does not make sense; it would only make sense if there was a comma between "had to run home" and "dinner was ready" to indicate that they are two independent clauses.  The two words next to the coordinating conjunction must belong to the same word category. This is not the case in B as one of them is a verb and the other one is a noun.  In sentence C, there is no parallelism because one of the verbs is the progressive tense and the other one is in the present simple tense (had to be running, eat dinner).  Finally, sentence D has no parallelism because it takes a purpose clause (jim had to run home to eat his dinner).

Answer:

Explanation:

1. There are three main types of glacial erosion - plucking, abrasion and freeze thaw.

2. A nunatak is the summit or ridge of a mountain that protrudes from an ice field or glacier that otherwise covers most of the mountain or ridge. They are also called glacial islands. Examples are natural pyramidal peaks.

3. A lateral moraine forms along the sides of a glacier. As the glacier scrapes along, it tears off rock and soil from both sides of its path. This material is deposited as lateral moraine at the top of the glacier's edges. Lateral moraines are usually found in matching ridges on either side of the glacier

4. These scratches, "striations," can be used to understand past ice flow. ... Over time, the glacier moves over rock and sediment, leaving striations or striae, on the rock surfaces that can reveal the direction that the glacier was flowing

5. They form in bowl-shaped depressions, also known as bedrock hollows or cirques, located on the side of, or near mountains. They characteristically form by the accumulation of snow and ice avalanching from upslope areas
