Answer:

Plural pronoun

Explanation:

An antecedent is a word, phrase or a sentence that gives a proform (usually a pronoun) its meaning. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, it is a word, phrase or clause whose denotation is referred to by a pronoun that typically follows it.

Examples: The antecedents are underlined in the sentences below:

  1. Peter said <u>he</u> likes football
  2. Mary loves <u>her</u> dog.

When two antecedents are connected by AND, a plural pronoun should be used to replace them. The rule is that if the noun that is being replaced in the sentence is singular, then the pronoun must be singular as well. And if it is plural, the pronoun must be plural too.

If two antecedents are replaced by AND, then they are plural, therefore the pronoun must be plural. An example is;

  • Peter and Paul left quite early because <u>they</u> did not want to miss their flight.

Peter and Paul are the antecedents, while <u>they</u> is the plural pronoun.

Which two details about sequoia trees are correct?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

A) They are some of the oldest living things on the planet.

B) They are a type of redwood tree.

Explanation:

The giant sequoia is one of the three species of redwoods. Redwoods belong to coniferous trees, which means that they have needle-like leaves that do not turn red, yellow, and orange in the fall nor fall off. Some of these trees are the oldest living beings on the planet (one of them is over 3500 years old). Despite the size of the tree (the tallest one is 311 feet tall), its roots do not reach deep, only 12 to 14 feet. The climate the giant sequoia is usually found in is humid, with dry summers and snowy winters.

Based on these facts, we can conclude that only statements A and B are correct.

Which of the following is an example of a false dilemma fallacy?
Lena [83]

Answer:

The answer is B. Yesenia can either take a cooking class, or she can be a horrible cook for the rest of her life.

Explanation:

A false dilemma fallacy is a kind of 'informal' fallacy. This is where something is incorectly claimed to be an "either/or" situation, when however, there is at least one additional option. The false dilemma fallacy can also be where there is a accidental exclusion of another option.

For example, if I say, "You can either brush your teeth with the blue toothbrush, or not brush your teeth at all." Yet, I forgot that we can grab another color toothbrush before you have to brush your teeth at the store.
