Explanation:
<u>Restrictive clauses or phrases are those that modify or transform the meaning of the noun that precedes them tangibly</u> and that are such that without the noun present would make no sense with the sentence. They are usually u<u>sed without any sort of punctuation.</u>
<u>Non restrictive clauses describe the noun they are preceded by but do not tangibly transform it </u>but only add to the overall description of the said noun. Thus,<u> they are used with commas as in the above case.</u>
What book is this from???
Traditionally, indigenous comes from the Latin word indigena (indu/endo: in/within + gignere: to beget (to procreate or generate). But here we are simply looking at roots. The root words here are -gen (something produced, and by extension, birth) and -ous (possessing/full of), and that combination is not an option, it seems. HOWEVER, it is not uncommon for suffixes to have more than one meaning, and this is no exception. -ous also means 'having, full of, or characterized by', meaning your answer is the second option, 'the word root “gen” means “birth,” and the suffix “-ous” means “having the quality of something.”'
Sentences that delay the main point until the end of the sentence are called periodic.
