Answer:

The term mare nostrum was used in the first place by Romans to refer to the Tyrrhenian Sea. This was after they had taken over the countries around it.  So they started to use the name mare nostrum for the whole Mediterranean Sea. They used other names as well, such as Mare Internum ("The Internal Sea").

What are three common reasons that might make you revise the focus of your research?
lianna [129]

Answer: Your topic is too broad to manage all the information.

Your position on a topic or issue changes as you conduct research.

You discover aspects of a topic that you had not previously considered.

Explanation: As you continue your research, you may have to change the focus because your opinions change, or more variables come into view as you continue. Sometimes, if you do not organize your research and narrow it down, you may have too much information to deal with. Then you need to change the focus in order to have a more tidy flow of information.

For the past 30 years, a couple have operated a neighborhood grocery store. Last week the city council passed a zoning ordinance
Scilla [17]

Answer:

A nonconforming use.

Explanation:

In a real estate language, a nonconforming use of property are referred to the use of a property that was allowed as per the zoning regulations at the time of building the property, but which can be no longer used because of the new zoning regulations.

Though the store was there for the past 30 years, and previously as per the old zoning ordinance it was in operation. But can no longer be in operation as a store in the area that has been announced to be a residential area</u>.

So, the correct answer is a nonconforming use.

Locate the gerund or gerund phrase and identify its noun function in the sentence.
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

<em>Gerund or gerund phrase:  </em><em>thinking</em>

<em>Noun function: </em><em>subject</em>

Explanation:

Gerund is a type of verbal which means it is a verb with a different function. In case of a gerund, it functions as a noun.

Basically recognizing gerund in a sentence is easy, it always ends in -ing.

Though it should not be confused with present participle which also ends in  -ing. Present participle acts as an adjective and it is a part of verb forms (e.g. present simple continuous).

In this sentence <em>thinking</em> answers to the question<em> what</em> (what is hard work), so that`s why it is a subject.
