English

Answer:

5. Fifteen kilometers <em><u>is</u></em> a nice distance to ski in an afternoon.

6.  Analyzing sentences for grammatical purposes <em><u>is</u></em> even better than watching paint dry.

7. Economics <em><u>is</u></em> almost as fascinating as accounting.

Explanation:

The use of "is" or "are" depends majorly on the condition of the noun involved. This means that if the noun is singular, we use "is" while for plural nouns, we use "are".

In the given sentences, "is" and "are" are used as follows-

5. In this sentence, the distance "fifteen kilometers" is taken as a single unit even though the word "kilometers" is in the plural state. Thus, the helping verb will be "is".

6. Here, the verb "analyzing" is taken as a gerund, thereby functioning as a noun. And so, the helping verb used will be "is".

7. Similarly, this sentence contains the noun "economics" which is a branch of study and thereby taken as a singular noun. Thus, the verb will be "is".

Thus, in all three sentences, the helping verb used will be "is".

Papessa [141]

More energy storage molecules accessible to moon jellies allows them to reproduce more, resulting in more births. Fewer deaths would also enhance the jelly population. The number of sea turtles and moon jelly consumers has reduced. Moon jellies and other jellies, according to scientists, thrive in locations that are severely impacted by human activities. Overfishing, ocean warming, and pollution are all variables that diminish the predators and competitors of moon jellyfish while increasing their prey.
