3 0

Answer:

A) Common examples of synchronization are: tickling, laughing, and wrestling.

Explanation:

A colon is a punctuation mark that is used to list, announce, or introduce or separate independent clauses in a sentence. Moreover, it is also used to connect a list to the other parts of the sentence if they are related.

In the given sentences, the correct usage of the colon is seen in sentence A. This is because the sentence contains a list of examples of synchronization. Other sentences are continuous sentences, with either just one independent clause. They need no use of the colon.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

The average of integers a and b is 12. if c = 3, what is the average of integers a, b, and c ?
Anni [7]

You know that the sum of a and b is 24, because the average is the sum of the numbers divided by the amount of numbers added together, and 12*2 is 24. Add 3 to 24 so you have 27, and then divide that by 3 because there are now 3 numbers in the set. The average of a, b, and c is 9.

Read the paragraph. The Merchant of Venice is an interesting play it is about a young man named Bassanio, who falls in love with
givi [52]
The following sentence is a run-on: The Merchant of Venice is an interesting play it is about a young man named Bassanio, who falls in love with wealthy girl, Portia.

It should be re-written the following way:
The Merchant of Venice is an interesting play. It is about a young man named Bassanio, who falls in love with wealthy girl, Portia. 

The sentence is two sentences fused together as one, which makes it a run-on and also difficult to read. When the proper punctuation is used the sentence is no longer a run-on and is then easier to comprehend.
