If the verb in the independent clause is in the present tense, the tense that the verb in the indirect quotation should be is <span>remain in its original tense. 
</span>You don't have to shift tenses because it is present in the independent one.
For example:
He says: "I need to wash my hair."
He says that he needs to wash his hair.
You wouldn't say - he says that he needed to wash his hair.

Jessica and I brainstormed ideas for our research projects together, so my experiment was both similar and different from
Strike441 [17]

The correct option to complete the sentence is found in "similar to and different from," which is the second option and is further explained below.

<h3>Prepositions used after "similar" and "different"</h3>

The adjectives "similar" and "different" need to have prepositions placed after them in order to complete their meaning and make a comparison. "Similar" needs the preposition "to", whereas "different" needs the preposition "from".

When using both adjectives, one after the other, in the same sentence, we must place their respective prepositions immediately after each of them to avoid confusion. That means the correct option is "similar to and different from."

With the information above in mind, we can choose the second option as the correct answer.

How do you think the historical denial of voting rights to african americans affected the makeup of congress and many state legi
il63 [147K]
If your skin is purple and purple people are not allowed to vote, it's likely your elected officials would not pay much attention to issues that are important to purple people, right? And you wouldn't find purple people in Congress or state legislatures either. OK now change skin color from purple to black. You will see that for many many years, Congress and many state legislatures were mostly (if not entirely) white males. 
<span>White men of the 18th and 19th centuries already had their rights and so the civil rights movement as we know it today didn't exist back then. It was only when blacks and women gained the rights to be educated and to vote in the late 1800s and early 1900s that the civil rights movement began to take hold and by the 1960s there was a flood of civil rights legislation being signed into law. You will also note that this happened as more blacks and women got elected to Congress and state legislatures. </span>
