Answer:

The dependent clause is "were fired, punished, or even killed." The transition word is "were."

Explanation:

A dependent clause is one that depends on a complement so that it is able to convey a coherent and understandable meaning. This is because this type of clause is not able to transmit a complete thought, managing to establish a message alone.

If we look at the sentence shown in the question above, we will see that the clause "Workers who completed to the owners" is able to start and end a thought, being then the independent clause. While the "were fired, punished, or even killed" clause fails to start and end a thought, it is a dependent clause.

The transition word is the one that makes the connection between the two clauses in a sentence. In the sentence shown in the question above, the transition word is "were".

Zolol [24]

Answer:

An indefinite pronoun refers to a sentence's subject or a preposition's object.

Explanation:

An indefinite pronoun, as the name suggests, refers to a person or a thing without being specific. Examples of indefinite pronouns are: all, some, any, none, someone, anything, everybody, among others.

Indefinite pronouns can function as the subject of a sentence or as the object of a preposition. Take a look at the sentences below to see how that happens:

- Everybody thinks Josh will fail this semester. --> indefinite pronoun "everybody" is the subject of the sentence.

- Money is not important to all. --> indefinite pronoun "all" is the object of the preposition "to".
