Brianna finds the following definition in the glossary of her science textbook: coma: a cloud of dust around the nucleus of the
comet Which of the following sentences correctly uses the word coma as it might be found in Brianna's textbook OA. I was glad my grandfather was not left in a coma after his serious accident. ОВ. Please make sure you put all your comas, apostrophes, and periods in the sentences. OC. The coma of the comet consists of ice particles and interstellar dust. OD. A coma is a very deep sleep.
The sentence which correctly uses the word "coma" as it might be found in Brianna's textbook is:
C. The coma of the comet consists of ice particles and interstellar dust.
Explanation:
The definition in Brianna's textbook clearly refers to "coma" as being that dust cloud that surrounds a comet. Therefore, we need to find a sentence that somehow mentions a comet's coma.
Sentences A and D can be eliminated since they refer to the coma a person gets into after an accident or due to an illness, for example. Sentence B refers to punctuation marks. In this case, it should be "comma" and not "coma". We can eliminate it as well. We are left with option C, which is the only one that uses coma in the sense found in the glossary. It clearly speaks of the coma of a comet.
He is a prophet, and he gives us several signs of his power even before he tells us his prophecy. One of the reasons why we know that he is indeed a prophet is from the interpretations that he makes of signs. The signs tell him that the gods do not approve of Creon's behaviour.
