The correct answer is C. complex.
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Here, the independent clause is <em>Galileo, the first astronomer to use a telescope, confirmed the theory </em>and the dependent clause is <em>that the earth and planets circle the sun.
</em>A is incorrect because a simple sentence contains only one independent clause; B is incorrect because a compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses; D is incorrect because a compound-complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least two dependent ones.
Here are some points to consider when making your argument:
The death penalty is only given to criminals who committed murders, not a minor crime such as stealing or even speeding (while driving a car).
The alternative to the death penalty is life in prison.
When an inmate goes on the death row, he\she doesn't know when the execution will take place. So it's kind of a suspense for them and drives them more crazy.
The execution is done by taking a show of drugs that puts them to death slowly. Lately, in the news, these executions have blotched up and went awry.
Hope that helped :)
Answer:
Grendel's mom fights more; pins him and has dagger.
Beowulf fought in both battles.
Explanation:
The difference between the battle between 'Beowulf and Grendel's mother' and 'Grendel and Beowulf' is that 'Grendel's mom is more attacking, she carries a dagger and even pins him.' In return, Beowulf counters her with the sword and breaks her collarbones. The importance of the similarity between the two distinct battles is that 'Beowulf took part in both of them.' Apart from the battle with Grendel's mother, he had an intense battle with Grendel too where the latter attempts to swallow him. However, Beowulf was successful in trashing him down.
While I have never read the book (because it is historically inaccurate - so don't get too sad, because it never could have happened), there are many words that would signal a flashback. Flashbacks are a time of reflection, so there are many past tense verbs used. You may also see things like, "Back in my day...", "As I think back...", "When I was a young boy...", "As I remember...".
In a text i read your answer is "The purpose of an Argumentative Essay is to defend a debatable position on a particular issue with the ultimate goal of persuading readers to accept the argument."
Have a nice day stranger!
