Answer:

The correct answer is A) The Coliseum in Rome is the structure that used to host gladiatorial combats.

Explanation:

A simple sentence is identifiable when there are three major components:

Subject + Verb + Object.

The Verb + the Object are both known as Predicate.

A ten-word sentence can still be a simple sentence because of the presence of modifiers, compound subjects, and compound verbs/predicates.

An example of a very basic simple sentence is:

Rome <u>hosted</u><em> combats.</em>

<em />

Rome is the subject.

<u>Hosted</u> is the verb

<em>Gladiatorial combats </em>is the object.

The subject becomes a compound one when you add The Coliseum. That is "The Coliseum in Rome is the structure" becomes the subject.

The verb/predicate becomes compounded when you qualify it using:

"that used to"

This makes the "that used to host" a compound verb. Note that the word hosted has changed to host.

The object - Combat has also changed slightly by the presence of a qualifier - and adjective - gladiatorial.

Read the sentence below and answer the question that follows. Ultimate Frisbee is a sport that is played in countries around the
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Adjective clause; sport.

Explanation:

An adjective clause is a type of clause that modifies or describes a noun in a sentence. It is also known as a relative clause and is a dependent clause, meaning, it cannot stand on its own as a full sentence.

In the given sentence, the subordinate clause used is an adjective clause that modifies the word "sport". The subordinate clause is "that is played in the countries around the world", containing a verb and a subject, thus making it an adjective clause and also modifying the noun "sport".

Thus, the correct answer is the last option.

maw [93]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

"cities or provinces that are accustomed to being ruled by a prince are easy to take over once the ruling family has been destroyed. People in such states are accustomed to obedience and do not know how to live in freedom without having someone to rule over them. Therefore, the new prince can win the province and hold onto it more easily."

I'll mark brainiest please help!!!!
levacccp [35]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Throughout the passage, the author takes the stance that too much gaming is unhealthy and is a bad obsession for young people.

Let's analyze the answer choices.

A.

This choice is correct. The passage states that "young people become obsessed with video games". The author also says that "many gamers play indoors...They rarely do any outside activities, including exercise." If a sentence about the harmful effects of no exercise was added, it would help support the argument that too much gaming is harmful.

B.

This choice is incorrect. This sentence has nothing to do with the fact that excess gaming is bad.

C.

This choice is also incorrect. A release date for the PlayStation 3 doesn't help persuade the readers that too much gaming is not good.

D.

This choice is also incorrect. Games without consoles do not support the argument that gaming in excess is bad.

The best choice is A: A lack of physical activity can lead to obesity and diabetes.
