Answer:

B). Combating

Explanation:

The most appropriate adjective to define Earp's qualities would be 'combating' as he is popularly known as the fearless lawman who was righteous in his conduct. This attitude and his efforts helped in transforming the lawless town of Kansas into a peaceful city. Infact, he died also during a gunfight with O.K.  Corral. Although he got arrested several times due to his association with brothels but he never attempted to jump off the jail and later he became a police officer. Probably, this is why he is known as a lawman and a gunslinger too. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.

Explain why it is better to not use rhetorical questions in a research paper?
umka2103 [35]
A research paper is fact and nothing but the fact. A research paper is just giving information about a topic. However, rhetorical questions are used to persuade the reader to believe or agree with something, mainly in a discursive essay; but in a research paper, you aren't persuading, you are educating.

Convert the following sentence from compound to complex sentence.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

As much as water is an endangered resource, we cannot live without it.

Explanation:

A compound sentence is a sentence that has two independent clauses, meaning there should be a conjunction to connect the two clauses (FANBOYS) or a semicolon.

A complex sentence has one independent clause and one dependent clause.

Note that independent clauses can stand alone as a sentence, meaning they have both a subject and a predicate.

On the other hand, a dependent clause can not stand alone as a sentence, has both a subject and verb, and will most often start with a subordinating conjunction.

<u>We have the sentence:</u>

Water is an endangered resource and we cannot live without it.

<u>We can make it:</u>

As much as water is an endangered resource, we cannot live without it.

As much as is the subordinating conjunction that makes the first clause dependent.

"We cannot live without it" is the independent clause.

You can remove "As much as" and replace it with any subordinating conjunction that makes sense, it's just hard to find a perfect replacement for the conjunction "and."
