Answer:

Slowly.

Explanation:

Modifiers are words, phrases, or clauses that modify other words in a sentence. This means that they help give 'extra' detail about the word they are modifying. Modifiers can either be an adjective or an adverb, depending on the word they modify.

In the given sentence<em> "I slowly ate the pizza; it took me 20 minutes to finish a slice"</em>, the modifying word is "slowly". This adverb modifies the verb "ate", thereby making it an adverbial clause. Adjective modifiers modify nouns while adverb modifiers modifier verb, another adverb, or an adjective.

Thus, the modifier in the sentence is "slowly".

LMDA: As far as historians know as of right now, Camelot was a real city in England.
kati45 [8]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Camelot is a castle and court associated with the legendary King Arthur. Absent in the early Arthurian material, Camelot first appeared in 12th-century French romances and, after the Lancelot-Grail cycle, eventually came to be described as the fantastic capital of Arthur's realm and a symbol of the Arthurian world.  

<em>The stories locate it somewhere in Great Britain and </em><u><em>sometimes associate it with real cities</em></u><em>, though more usually its precise location is not revealed. Most scholars regard it as being entirely fictional, its unspecified geography being perfect for chivalric romance writers. Nevertheless, arguments about the location of the "real Camelot" have occurred since the 15th century and continue to rage today in popular works and for tourism purposes. </em>
