The essential appositive in the sentence "astronomer maia mitchell discovered a comet in 1847 and went on to become the first professional female astronomer in the united states," is Maia Mitchel. The last option is correct.

An appositive consists on a noun or noun phrase that renames another noun right beside it. The appositive can be a short or long combination of words.

In this particular case, the words Maia Mitchell which is a proper noun is renaming the noun astronomer, which is right before it and constitutes the subject of the sentence.

Answer:

D). Maria Mitchell.

Explanation:

An appositive is illustrated as the noun words or phrase that defines another noun it follows. It functions to rename or explain the noun or pronoun by proposing additional information about it.  

In the given statement, the essential appositive would be 'Maria Mitchell' as it renames the noun 'astronomer' right beside it by adding further information about the astronomer. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer as the other options do not define or elaborate a noun.

How can you describe a problem using a personal narrative? PLS HELP QUICK
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

I would say to use all the parties involved to shape their experience from a different perspective.  The way you shape your perspective can have a big impact on how your reader sees your all-inclusive and overall plot.  The author should take part as one of the characters and you should show WHAT happened and you need to establish your perspective uniquely.  A key thing is that you want your reader to take away from what you are writing, and the tone of voice you are using.  Also for the problem, why was it a problem?  Who helped solve or help the problem?  If there is a solution, then explain that in detail, and since it is a personal narrative, how do you feel overall from the problem or conflict?  I HOPE THIS HELPS, PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG!

What is the meaning of "Jem had no firm basis for his ideas, he said it was merely a twitch." in chapter 8 of tkam?
erma4kov [3.2K]

The meaning of "Jem had no firm basis for his ideas, he said it was merely a twitch." in chapter 8 in TKAM is that Jem just said what he said as a spur of the moment without a solid plan.

<h3>What happened in To Kill a Mockingbird?</h3>

This refers to the story that occurred in a very racist town when a lawyer Tom Sawyer decided to defend a black man accused of a crime and his family began to be attacked by his decision to defend the black man.

Hence, it can be seen that Jem was his child and did not have any firm basis for the idea which he said, but they just came out of his mouth, and was so scared the next day.
