Answer and Explanation:

<u>What functions as a subject is not really the relative clause, but the relative pronoun - "that".</u> Relative pronouns can act as subjects or objects in the clause they introduce. Let's compare:

1. I am the only person who saw Erica.

2. I am the only person who Erica saw and recognized.

Notice that in sentence 1, "who" is the subject of the clause "saw Erica". However, in sentence 2, "who" is the object. The subject of the verb "saw" now is "Erica".

<u>The same happens in the clause "that was hurt before". The relative pronoun "that" - which is substituting the noun "ankle" - is the subject of the clause "was hurt before". Therefore, we can say its noun function is the subject.</u>

WILL BRAINLIEST What factors do you think influence what you feel about yourself? What would help a person develop a more positi
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The factors that influence what I feel about myself are gender and appearance.

A person can develop a more positive self-concept by becoming contented of himself and not comparing himself to other people.

Explanation:

Self-concept- Generally speaking, self-concept is defined as a person's thought about his own behavior, abilities and characteristics. It can be divided into two, <em>positive self-concept and negative self-concept.</em>

Positive self-concept- A person who values himself has a positive self-concept. It gives the person the ability to cope with different problems involving himself. He often has a big confidence and feels secure.

Negative self-concept- A person who has a hard time accepting criticisms or negative feedback has a negative self-concept. He lacks confidence and is insecure.

For me, <em>gender and appearance influence my self-concept. </em>My gender tells me the positive side of being a woman (since I'm a lady). It gives me awareness on how a good woman should behave in the society. Next, my appearance. As I get older, I realize that I needed to change my fashion according to my age. This affects my self-concept.

In order to have a positive self-concept,<em> </em><em>it is very important to accept your flaws as a person.</em> If you're contented of who you are, you will feel more secure. You also won't get trapped in competing with other people for power and fame. <em>Comparing yourself with others will make you even more distant and insecure.</em>
