D. it clearly connects ideas
Parallelism is when the same grammatical or sentence structure is used for a list of ideas or items. By using a similar grammatical structure the reader's brain automatically makes a connection between the ideas because of the similar structure. Caesar's famous line "I came. I saw. I conquered." is an example of parallelism. Each of the sentences has the format subject-past tense verb.
The major way to distiguish a main verb and a verb phrase with a participle in a sentence is to pay close attention to how the verb functions or what element does it modify.
While main verbs express action, participles look like verbs but function as modifiers or adjectives, and they usually end in -ed or -ing.
For example, in "The smiling postman waved at the children", the participle "smiling" functions as a modifier, indicating what kind of postman was "waving" (the main verb expressing an action).
Another example would be "The meal cooked last night smelled good". Here, "cooked last night" explains which meal performed the action expressed by the main verb "smelled".
To conclude, while main verbs express or indicate action, verb phrases with a participle function as adjectives modifying nouns.

Answer: Not exactly.
Explanation: No, I wouldn't say people are only complete when they're aware of their ancestral culture. Many people have no idea who their great great great grandma was, or even know she existed. I think a lot of people are focused on the now, and either don't have time, or just wouldn't like knowing. It is a very good thing to be proud of your culture, and where you've come from, but it is not a necessity. You don't need to embrace your culture, or race, to be confident and proud of who you are.
