<span>Melville’s description of Ahab’s scar in this excerpt from ''Moby ick'' best develops the theme of: the ruling of man's present by his past wounds. This excerpt clearly shows that the scar that character attained in the past still has an influence on his life. The character feels the presence of the scar as if it was freshly got, and all this descriptive language stands as a metaphor of symbolic meaning of people's scars in their life and fate.<span>

Answer:
b) Both an independent clause and a subordinate clause, when standing alone, are
followed by a period to end the sentence.
Explanation:
An independent clause is a group of words that has a subject and predicate but can make complete sense on their own.
EXAMPLE of an independent clause is "He opened the door"
EXAMPLE of a dependent clause is "when he heard the knock"
"He opened the door" can stand on its own and make perfect sense and can be ended with a period.
"when he heard the knock" is dependent and isn't usually ended with a period when standing alone.
Putting the clauses together, we have, "He opened the door when he heard the knock. " and this is a complex sentence.
Idk i'm guessing b bc that's not that important everything else is if taft makes sense
Articulation is the answer :) have a nice day <3.
