The correct answer is C. The league produced many fine players, including Mary “Bonnie” Baker and Dorothy Kamenshek.

Explanation:

In the passage presented both sentence (11) and sentence (12) aim at providing the reader with examples on the players the AAGPBL produces, in the case of sentence (11) Mary "Bonnie" Baker is mentioned and sentence (12) adds Dorothy Kamenshek was equally a fine player that emerged from this women softball club, this implies both women are equally important, because of this both names should be linked by adding the conjunction "and", considering this conjunction expresses a relationship of equality between the element it joints. Besides this to show the reader these women are examples of the results of the softball club it is necessary to the word "including" and it is already clear they are examples of "many fine players" is not necessary to add any further information after the name of both women. Thus, the correct way to combine sentence (11) and (12) is "The league produced many fine players, including Mary “Bonnie” Baker and Dorothy Kamenshek" because it expresses both women are examples of fine players of the league and are in the same level.

Both poem and the song describes the theme of loneliness and companionship. In the beginning a character is introduced of loneliness and staring at the cold.

The poetic form of “your laughter” is known as _____. blank verse free verse pentameter sonnet
saul85 [17]
<span>The poetic form of “your laughter” is known as free verse, because it doesn't follow any rules regarding rhyme schemes or the overall structure of the poem. 
Blank verse is written in pentameter, so that answer, as well as pentameter are incorrect. It isn't a sonnet either, because sonnets have only 14 lines.

Explain why doctors long ago used bloodletting to treat their patients. Use text evidence to support your answer.
jeyben [28]
In Ancient times, sickness was thought to be caused by an excess of blood. Therefore, doctors would cut into their patients and let some of the blood out to help cure them. This theory advanced into thinking that the human body needed all of its "humors" to be balanced: blood was one of the humors so if  the doctor thought you had an imbalance, they would 'let' some of the blood out.
